2010 Winter Olympic Mascots unveiled in Surrey near Vancouver

VANOC CEO John Furlong helps Quatchi down some steps onstage at the unveiling of the 2010 Winter Olympic Mascots Miga, Quatchi and Sumi in Surrey near Vancouver, British Columbia, November 27, 2007. Miga is a sea bear which according to First Nations legend is an orca whale which can turn into the rare white Kermode bear only found in British Columbia. Quatchi is a sasquatch described in many West Coast First Nations stories but rarely seen. Sumi is an animal gaurdian spirit who wears the hat of an orca, has the strong leags of the black bear and flies with the wings of the great thunderbird. (UPI Photo/Heinz Ruckemann)
