Jon,

I always wondered where the Naugys originated.  I know that some =
actually made it to Mexico in the 60s - or maybe it was only the hides.  =

If you need to replace it, apparently there are still several bands of =
free-ranging Naugys running throughout Naugatuck. If you are able to =
catch one (they are fast), you might be able to fashion new Naugahyde =
seat covers. While Naugys reportedly come in different colors, some say =
that those variations are due to the latest pollution in the Naugatuck =
River (another reason for the demise of the former home of Peter & Paul =
Mounds).
