Sorry....Yet another image i have found, it seems very strange to me, dubbed as "Beast Of Bosnia"?
Its guts appear to be spilling, is this just a messed up lizard?

Bit disgusting pic but interesting. Ok, let's see..Teeth say it's carnivorous. It has 4 toes that look really strange-nothing like foxes/jackals/dogs or big cats. Body structure looks like it's built for running/or swimming. If we exclude some sort of sick joke, then the best guess would be an aquatic creature, possibly skinned. I really can't say..
(crypto)Zoology is not my field

Old picture lads.

It's been confirmed as being nothing more than a skinned domestic cat.

Yikes! Those fingers/toes are weird, otherwise I'd say some type of mammal! The teeth obviously say carnivor, no visible ears though... But, what ever it is... Don't want to run into it in the middle of the night! Those teeth remind me of a possum I saw in my chicken coop!

Sick, who would skin a cat?
Its face doesnt look like a cat, but who am i to know what a skinned cat looks like.....cheers duuuudes

Great pic to look at while I'm eating brekkie, NOT.

The feet look wrong to be a cat, wasn't this one doing the rounds as a chupa?

Very old picture. It's been around for years.

Just a dog or possibly cat, covered in dirt and grime, decomposed badly. Cat/dog fingers look like that once the flesh and pads have rotted off them. What you're seeing is just rott and dirt covering bone.

The feet do look wierd, but you gotta remember that cats actually have long toes. We just can't see them becasue they have so much fur.

umm...are those its "babies?"

i posted this ages ago, and its been explained as something...

theres a picture of it in the um gallery....

its a pine marten

no, sadly they are the creatures guts. the skin probably broke becasue it was weakened from losing it's fur. Poor guy
Even more sad, this creature is a Pine Marten that was skinned. This is what he used to look like before ...

i highly doubt that creature was found in bosnia...

are pine martens common in that part of the world?

anyone know?

mkay thats so cool! in a weird gross sort of way
wish it was babies though

*edit*
its so cute

Why do you wish those were dead babies? That would be even more sad

i'd have to say thats a male pine marten

so it couldn't be its babies...

just weird looking guts hanging out...

It looks like a ferret thats been skinned to me

Yeah, they found out it was a Pine Marten that was skinned. It's pretty sad.

Yeah, pine martins are built very much like ferrets. Same sort of critter.

So, Mr. Halo, it's a male martin? Is that a professional diagnosis?

well it just looks like a fella pine marten, call it pigeons instinct

yup seen it before... its nasty...yup...sick

I haven't really read most of the replies to this topic, but this is my opinion/guess/thingy. It is a hoax. It shares no resemblance to any ferret I have ever seen.

eeewwww....guts.

But how many SKINNED ferrets have you seen to compare it to? When an animal is skinned it doesn't look anything like it was before.

True, true, but do skinned ferrets have pointed teeth? If the creature has been modified in anyway to carry out some mysterious creatures existance in anyway possible it is a hoax. Even if it were a skinned ferret, and planted as a weird deformed mutated monster, it is a hoax.

Oops, I forgotted Ferrets have pointy teeth...I feel dumb.

I got a Ferret /expert/ to take a look at the picture, and here is what she had to say:

"Okay, sorry I had to post else where.

The picture is quite desturbing, but I can happily say that is NOT a ferret. Much to long and skinny for a domesticated ferret, and to small for a black footed ferret.
The ferrets that live with people have longer tails, fatter butts, and shorter legs. To me, that is a weasel or another mustelid like ferrets."

I doubt that threre are pine martens there. There are a lot here in Newfoundland. Corrction, WHERE until humans started hunting them for fur. Stupid ancestors.

Good point.It is probably some kind of varment.Most likely a marten like you guys said.Or a weasel,or a water rat

I have viewed this and read many opinions on it, I personally think this thing is something biologically mutated. Notice its innards are outards and the lack of hair.

Could be a skinned wolverine or coyote.Most likely a sick joke.Or,could be a unidentified species,but i doubt it...

Aw yuck.....

Poor widdle Pine Marten. Some sick f*ck probably done that to him for fun . Or maybe it was a dog? Don't know for sure. But whatever it was, it sure made a mess of the little fella

someone probably skinned the thing for its fur, i imagine it happens to lots of pine maretens, its just this animal wasn't very well disposed of, or the guy who skinned it thought it looked creepy and thought he could make some money by claiming it was an unidentified creature...

Never thought of that. Still, that is a pretty cruel thing to do. I mean look at its face , How could you hurt one of them?
