A species of Irish lake monster is the Brokee, which derives its name from Irish broc shi. which means literally a fairy badger. A number of lakes are said to house such a creature. One of these was supposed to dwell in Shandagan Lough in County Clare. This was seen by a man named Quinn. Another was seen at Rath Lake in the same county. What physical characteristic gave it the fairy element in its name is unknown to me. The word shi may indicate a preternatural attribute generally and vaguely.
