Alascattalo Day arrives on November 21, celebrating an eccentric piece of Alaskan humor in the United States. Created by Alaska-based writer Steven C. Levi, the observance revolves around the mythical Alascattalo, a whimsical hybrid imagined from a moose and walrus. Its deliberately Crazy premise and playful folklore make the occasion particularly Funny, inviting laughter through tall tales, disguises, and absurd imagery. The day also playfully intersects with Wildlife, drawing inspiration from Alaska’s remarkable animal kingdom while transforming natural history into comic folklore. The tradition even features a famously brief parade in Anchorage, adding an appealingly surreal flourish to this unconventional celebration.
