[UM-Bot]

Image credit: Wikipedia

An unidentified creature that bears a close resemblence to last year's "Montauk Monster" has washed up on New York's coastline. The carcass is being kept in a cooler full of ice until more about it can be determined.

"An odd creature has apparently washed up on New York's coast, sparking claims that it may be another so-called "Montauk Monster." A similar carcass sparked an online and media frenzy last July after appearing at a popular surfing spot near Montauk, N.Y."

First impression it looks like a sheep with its nose and mouth parts missing revealing part of its skull.

Hmmmmm it could be some kind of mysterious chimera type experimental creature. Who knows what it is. Whatever it is, anything dead can look like a million other types of animals. It is interesting that this is the second one being found like this. If the first one was just some kind of fluke thing or some kind mof deforemed animal then why is there a second one that looks just like it? Hmmmm time will tell.

Bears are related to raccoons.

Did last years really turn our to be a skinned raccoon? I hadn't heard that.

Washed up on shore??? Whats intriging to me is this thing has legs and arms so how did it get into the water in ther first place unless its a new or unidentified species of marine life.

Its a racoon, so it was probably a seaside foraging gone bad.

Its a Raccoon. Lots of Raccoon around here, lots of em drown.

looks abit like a deformed dog. I hope they didn't kill that animal, and torture it, just so they can get noticed.

take another look at that photo. specially the front paw in the chest. No dog i know of has fingers. This animal also seems to have some webbing in the fingers for swimming.

As I stated this might be another case of the platypus face animal call. When the platypus was first sent to Europe they thought it was a joke even a stitched together animal.

Racoons have fingers and there's no platypus with canine teeth.

Racoons have fingers and there's no platypus with canine teeth.

I added the fingers. Rick roll fan wrote that the Montaur monster was "flicking [me] off". Reading really quickly, I read this as "flipping me off". Then I thought, "... wow, that would be an interesting image". The real Montauk monster had pointy undifferentiated feet like a hooved animal with the hooves rotted off.

I never saw a platypus skull before.... So the duckbill isn't really a bill after all.

The pic from the OP actually looks a lot like a bear to me. But, it could also be a sheep or pig or whatever too.

It looks like a bloated carcass of a dog.

[crystal sage]

The kids said that it looked like that crawling out of a cave.. the hands do not look like they belong to a dog... and the limbs are too long..
