In this enlightening legend shared by Lakota Elder Kevin Locke, Wakȟáŋ Tȟáŋka (The Great Spirit) created the entire world in seven days; leaving the most precious creation for last.
In order to protect this precious creation, Wakȟáŋ Tȟáŋka needed to hide it where it would always be safe and turned to our animal relatives for help.
Together, they found the perfect place. Do you know where they chose?
