Last July, a couple found the carcass of a strange beast washed up on New York’s coastline. The creature resembled no animal we know of and was immediately labeled The Montauk Beast, Montauk being the place it was discovered.
Now, photos have been released of a second strange creature which could be another Montauk Beast, It was found in roughly the same area but looks slightly different. The couple who found it bagged it and have it on ice for, well, who knows what reason.
There are various theories as to what The Montauk Beast could be. Some suggest it’s a half-decomposed pig or dog, others claim it’s a movie prop, while other still think it may be a genetic experiment from the Plum Island Animal Disease Center.
The most outlandish theory is it’s a form of biological warfare, meant to contaminate the water around New York. Whatever the truth, it’s certainly a weird sight to behold. Maybe the Loch Ness Monster swam to America and had some offspring?
