There are eight major doodem types found among the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe. They are Bizhiw (Lynx), Makwa (Bear), Waabizheshi (Marten) Awaazisii (Bullhead), Mai'ingan (Wolf), Migizi (Bald Eagle), Name (Sturgeon) and Moozens (Little Moose). Due to the historical Mille Lacs Band of Mdewakanton Dakota that formed in part the historical Mille Lacs Indians and the Snake River Band of Isanti Dakota that became part of the historical St. Croix Band of Lake Superior Chippewa that survives today in part as the St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Minnesota, Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe have a high degree of Mai'ingan-doodem members.
