Earl Bunyon is a towering 19-foot statue located in New Town, North Dakota, created by Fred and Berd LaRocque in 1958 as the supposed brother of the legendary Paul Bunyan. The statue, which has been refurbished and is now protected by a fence, serves as a notable landmark on the east edge of town.
In a poignant tribute, Fred LaRocque's son, Jene, was interred at Earl's feet after his passing in 2003, further solidifying the statue's significance in the community. Earl Bunyon draws visitors who appreciate quirky roadside attractions and the rich folklore of the American Midwest.
