That thing actually turned out to be a dog in the end. I'm pretty sure they said it was a boxer that had drown. The mouth area was rotting away a little making it look like a turtles beak.

A sheep that's bloated from being in the water, and had it's extremities gnawed off by fish (or hacked-off by a hoax perpetrator). You can identify it by it's exposed skull. This is why they want journalists to check it out, rather than experts in related fields of biology. I doubt that it's truly a hoax, but that's possible, and not allowing experts to check it out is kind of a damning thing to do. They claim that they really want to know what it is, but then they don't take the steps to do it.The original one found was much more compelling than this more recent one. That one was likely a bloated seal carcass, unless it was a hoax... the similarites are interesting, but the differences sort of damning. There apparently ARE seals on an island near where the original one was found, and I don't recall my source on this, but I recall something about sick, or infected seals being studied there, and the suggestion that it had something to do why it looked odd.More info:<a href=\"http://www.montauk-monster.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.montauk-monster.com</a> (the current "owner" of this monster that was found May 5th of this year.. who coincidentally, already owned this website domain and used it to discuss the first one found.)

Yea i knew it was a critter of known orgins..but i do LOVE how the media and certain speculators hype crap up! Kinda like the bigfoot carcass found with bologna for a tongue, actually to be a suit made by Chuck Jarman...lol!!!
