Dugong

In the Sunday School Class yesterday, there was an excellent discussion about the Coverings of the Wilderness Tabernacle. The 4th (outer covering), according to Exodus 26:14 and Exodus 36:19 was of badger or dugong skins. KJV says Badger and many other versions say Dugong. A badger, of course, is a fairly familiar animal but what does a Dugong look like? The picture above shows a dugong. To read more than you probably ever wanted to know about the dugong, CLICK HERE.
