In Canadian folklore, the Manipogo is a lake monster said to live in Lake Manitoba, Manitoba, Canada. The creature was dubbed Manipogo in 1960, the name echoing British Columbia's Ogopogo. It is the namesake of the Manipogo Provincial Park.

There is also a monster called Winnepogo, named for either Lake Winnipegosis or Lake Winnipeg, thought possibly to be the same creature since the lakes are connected.
