What is the montauk monster???

Question

My guess is it's a turtle without it's shell. Any other speculations?

Answer 1

This creature is called a monesirius quacillis. Its a combination of a rat and a basilisk (Basiliscus species). It is not a common creature and is considered almost extinct. I wouldn't be surprised seeing this in Brazil or Mexico. But seeing it in New York left me wondering what in the world is it doing in there? I can only surmise that it is being experimented and it escaped. This breed cannot surive the City environment for long and it will seek for locations with water. However it does not strive with salt water. Thats probably what killed it, forcing to take in salt water out of dehydration. These aninmals cannot survive without fresh water for 12 hours. Thats the only explanation why it is seen near the shore.

Answer 3

It could be an unknow animal...

I heard that there's a animal test place close to where the body was found. What needs to happen is to go into the testing place and ask questions and take a tour of the place.

Answer 7

I think its a hoax.  Monster or not he wouldn't be sticking his middle finger out, I doubt he would know the meaning of it.

Answer 8

maby it an alien that was sent to earth but drowned, my guess though is a racoon without hair

Answer 9

Some people are totally clueless!

It is NOT a turtle. A turtles shell is made from its rib cage, therefore it cannot just be simply 'lifted' off his back and have a smooth back, it is built into him. Imagine you pull your own ribs out and see if your skin surface is still smooth, i guarantee it isn't.

ALSO turtles don't have legs like that with joints, they have flippers. DUH!

It is NOT a raccoon. It has not got fur. Its body shape is also totally different to any raccoon I've ever seen.

It has hooves. Therefore my vote is it is a pig. It's face has partially decomposed. Cover up the jaw/teeth part and it looks just like a pig. The whole body.

the bit 'sticking out' is NOT a finger. It is a long half of a hoof. I know what these look like as my pet sheep sometimes get really long ones that stick out like that.

it could possibly be a hoax photo shop thing, but the shadow part someone else said on another answer, the shadow is realistic. The little 'pointy' bit on the shadow near its head is the shadow of the tip of its ear. Some people read way too much into things.

It definitely is NOT an alien either.
