While the traditional Rougarou story is accepted as truth in many communities and exists in multiple forms, this is only one of them and is a work of fiction that is not based on any real persons. The creators of this project acknowledge that Rougarou stories are regionally specific and not evident in all communities. While the story depicted might not reflect all opinions, efforts have been made to tell the story through proper protocols and with the guidance of Elders and Knowledge Keepers in order to best represent this communal oral story but it’s by no means comprehensive.
