Shingebiss is an Ojibwa (Chippewa) Native American story which exemplifies the strength of the underdog and the virtue of perseverance and fortitude. It is traditionally told about a duck who defies the harsh cold winter while others cower. While Shingebiss is sometimes depicted as a young woman in the story, the role of the underdog hero is more often occupied by a duck. Despite the common portrayal of the protagonist as a merganser duck, zhingibis in the Ojibwe language means "waterhen," "coot" or "grebe."
