College OTR: What Is The Montauk Monster?

What Is The Montauk Monster?

Calling all biology majors.

Yesterday, the strange beast depicted above washed up on a beach in Montauk, New York.

Since then, the creature has earned the nickname "The Montauk Monster" and left half the Internet speculating what exactly it is.

Is it a new turtle species that has been beaten with the ugly stick? A product of some government experiment gone horribly awry? Or, is it merely a publicity stunt being used to promote an upcoming film?

Time to join the on-going speculation. If bio-whizzes can't figure it out, no one can.

if you look at a picture of a sea turtle it looks similar with this photo. I bet almost 100percent that this is a sea turtle. Posted 07/30/2008 4:40 PMReply

It's not a turtle: it has teeth on the lower jaw. Posted 07/30/2008 6:28 PMReply

Most likely the body of a turtle with the head of a vulture superimposed. The lower jaw is probably canine. Considering how many people are gullible enough this hoax it's no wonder Obama is doing as well as he is. Posted 07/30/2008 6:59 PMReply

It is a creature known in Puerto Rico as Chupacabra or goat sucker because it suck the blood of goats and small ponies. It was a big problem in Puerto Rio about 17 yrs ago. This creature is actually from another planet left here by an alien people to see what it would do here and react here on this planet. Posted 07/30/2008 8:03 PMReply

It can't be a sea turtle, it has teeth and the shell is attached in the spine, it can't be removed. That looks prettu damn real though. Have no idea what it could be but to me it looks like a cow experiment gone horribly wrong. Posted 07/31/2008 12:07 AMReply

Has anyone noticed the shadows, the body suggest noon time straight down on the body, the head shows a shadow that is at an angle. The head also looks to be that of a giant squid, they have a similar beek like mouth. The body looks like a pigs body. So not sure if this is clever photography or just somebodies family reunion shots but it is ugly. Posted 07/31/2008 12:48 AMReply

Its probably an undiscovered deep sea creature, there is so many creatures in the ocean that have not even been discovered yet because its so enormous, and not to mention the fact that there are so many areas deep down in the bottom of the ocean that no man has ever even been to. This species may have been around for thousands of years, it almost looks like a dinosaur species...thats just my opinion though. or maybe its a deformed sewer rat, lol Posted 07/31/2008 12:51 AMReply

the tail sugests an aquatic anamal or a preditor such as a capibaraor a big cat.the skin discoloration makes me think it was floating about the ocean for quite a while and it seems that the face is missing some flesh,that would give the impression of a beak.it is most surely swollen from decompisition.the forward eyes also suggest a preditor but the warthog mutton chopps are throwing me through a loop.the teeth and jaw are very similer to a pig but pigs dont have tails like that.????????????

It's not a griffin. The body shape is all wrong, as is the integument. It's probably not a member of the Grifinadae seeing as it lacks the wings typical of that group. There's also the fact the Griffinadae as a whole; griffin, hippogriff, and hieracosphinx have no teeth. I'm thinking a chinera based on a porcine body with an archosaurian head. Possibly one of the small neoceratopsians, one that has teeth in the lower jaw. Posted 07/31/2008 02:29 AMReply

From crown of head to beak was taken from a bird.
Body, most likely turtle. See the skin on the front arm where it would attach to the shell? Lower jaw could be from a few different mammals. It should take anyone over five years old about one minute to break this down and realize it's a hoax. If not, that's why the turtle is giving you the finger. Posted 07/31/2008 06:46 AMReply

That isn't a beak, it's nasal bones and cartilage. The teeth are differentiated with canines visible. There appears to be remnant fur under and just on the side of the neck. The stage of decomposition would suggest it has been in water for a long time and the fur has sloughed off. I will guess it's a canid or ursid that has been pounded, washed and stripped by waves and sand. possibly an exotic pet dumped in the sea. Posted 07/31/2008 07:29 AMReply

My first guess is that it's fake. If it is a real animal my guess would be a known rodent (pocket gopher?) or lagomorph, based on the teeth and body structure. If this is a real animal it would appear to be in a mummified state - likely from being in a very dry desert setting. Something just doesn't seem right about the whole thing though, and the call for college students (who anybody with a brain knows are about the most MORONIC and IGNORANT demographic, after teenagers) just screams "hoax" to me.

It's clearly a dead cat that's been in the water too long and has had it's face decomposed or damaged. Careful measurement of the limbs shows this to be the case and it is completely normal for animals in the water to bloat like that and lose the hair... in short... it's a bloated decomposed/damaged dead cat.

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. For more information about this creature go to http://www.navigatorminiatures.com/prodtype.asp?PT_ID=939

Okay, so after examining this picture..... for quite sometime i may add...... I have concluded that the angle of lighting does not change on any area of body, chunks of decaying flesh create a shadow. I also believe that this is real, but someone wants to cover it up for some reason. Obviously the "old guy" grabbed it to keep mass panic down about this thing that is not all to uncommon. What, you don't think our governments are covering anything that would make us no longer feel like masters of this world. The ones pulling the strings don't want their puppets panicing out of control And i guarantee that this is not the first or last monster found, just the only time the governments couldn't get their dirty hands on it first. thank you internet!!!!!No control Posted 07/31/2008 10:43 PMReply

After looking at the best picture I could find of the body my first thought was sea otter but then I realized it has more canine type feet on the back so I did some googling. Looks like a Marine Otter from South America. Don't know much about sea currents so I'm not sure how it ended up in NY but thats my guess. Posted 07/31/2008 11:13 PMReply

i don't think this to be a sea turtle, 70% of the earth's lifeforms have yet to be catalogged. my bet would go toward this being an incredibly deep diving turtle very similar in make up to a snapping turtle but better suited to hunting at extreme depths. it lacks protruded shoulder blades making its arms more flexible at the ball of its shoulder, the only quadrapedal aquatic mammal with that particular trait is a turtle. the government has been doing tests into cross-mating different species to make more useful animals out of them, so i wouldn't entirely rule that out, but i couldn't muster a single reason why we'd need genetic super turtles... me personally, i'm going to write this one up as a turtle who got attacked by a shark or whale and died once it lost its shell.

The posterior end and hind legs look anything but aerodynamically shaped for life in the water. Whatever it is, it is a land animal. It does NOT have hoofs. Its back right leg looks like it was removed, but the the other hind leg shows a distinct foot, such as are found in dogs. From what I see, it was a furred animal. There are still patches of fur under its neck and behind its ear. There is also a strip of skin (with fur on it) dangling over its right front arm.
The mouth though, is a real puzzle. The teeth of the lower jaw start with the molars and transition to canine teeth and finally end with a single over-sized fang. The upper jaw has only a few teeth visible being covered by the supposed "beak", which I think is nothing more than a flap of flesh that is dangling there. The type of teeth that are visible here are typical of a canine.
All of these observations point me to the conclusion that this is a canine, probably a pit bull.
I did check the shadows and did not find anything that would point to a fraud. Posted 08/01/2008 10:09 AMReply

It is a photoshopped of a picture of a large dog.
The entire head area has been altered. Look at the head area, blow it up and look at the abnormalities of the pixelation. Unaltered pictured do not look this way.
Shadows and shading are not correct for the head. Shadows do not show in differenet directions unless there is more than one light source. I have done photo restoration and graphic design for 25 years. Long before most of you even new what a pc was. This is definitely a cropped photograph. Pretty clever, but, fortunately, not clever enough. This is not entirely based on my professional opinion. This is based on programs used to do this type of editing. It will also tell me that a photo has been edited also. Sorry about you monster theory. Someone is pulling your leg. Posted 08/01/2008 11:00 AMReply

It's actually not too bad for a composite. For a static shot it's pretty decent. But for photo analysis it's horrible. All you photoshop guru's out there know exactly what I'm talking about. Blow up the beak connection to snout line. The pixels degrade on all closeup points. I've taught my 8th grade kid to do better composites in photoshop. The next time some fool decides to Photoshop a composite made up monster, tell them to do it on a higher resolution and clean up the "Blended" pixels before he or she decides to release it to the public as being legit.
Laughable.

Nice job with the photoshop!!! You can plainly see (once zoomed 600%) onto the head the a blut and cut tool from the program was used. We all know the ocean can swell up humans and animals to a very big state. This animal is a K-9. The (little flipper) they are calling it, is simply the other leg tucked under the other. Of course with some time at sea the k-9 paws could have been knawed on. Someone just thought it would be funny do some graphic manipulation that's all. That also answers the question of the shadows.

My good friend Devo McG knows all there is to know about what is commonly refered to as a "rat-dog". Rat-dogs populate a small island off the coast of Staten Island. In fact if you are driving from Brooklyn to Staten Island, Rat-Dog Island is clearly visible to your left hand side. No man has ever stepped foot onto Rat-Dog Island and I doubt any man ever will. However, my friend studies the island via several vantage points on the Staten Island and Brookyn waterfronts. My friend Devo McG also used to summer in Montauk so he is very familiar with the flora and fauna common to that part of Long Island. He adamantly states that this is a mid-sized Rat-Dog. One can only speculate how this Rat-Dog traveled so far, Rat-Dogs being terrestrial creatures, but said expert speculates that either a lack of adequate food supply will eventually force Rat-Dog mutation or airborne predators will eventually realize the plentiful supply of nourishment available on Rat-Dog Island and begin carrying these creatures mainland. Either way, I believe him. Posted 08/01/2008 4:03 PMReply

If anyone has ever skinned an animal, then this is what one would look like. I had to skin a rabbit in SERE last year and it looked similar to this. The muscles after sitting in the sun looked just like that. While you don't generally skin the head, I would imagine it would look pretty nasty like that "Montauk Monster". This is most likely a racoon or similarly structured animal. Posted 08/01/2008 5:44 PMReply

Ok in all seriousness... Why is there only the one picture??? I'm sorry but if I were to find something like this on the beach i would take as many DIFFERENT pictures as I could, not just one... That is the only reason that I suspect foul play with this one... Another anonymous person said that he/she saw it in person... I ask you, why aren't there any other pictures out there??? You know this thing had to of drawn a pretty big crowd when it was found, especially in the middle of the day like the shadows explain... Its VERY easy to mess with ONE picture, but would be way more difficult to make several photos that all actually match...

For one, all of you people who say that it is a turtle, or that it has the body of a turtle is highly incorrect.

To me it looks like a muskrat. I bet this creature is alot smaller than it appears. Whatever this creature is, it is already pretty bloated and blotchy from decomp, so it may not look anything like what it really is. Look up muskrat on wikipedia and it shows the skull bone of a muskrat. It really does have a beak-like appearance. And they're semi-aquatic with webbed feet so... BTW there is no way that is a turtle, the thing in the pic has tufts of fur behind the head. Posted 08/01/2008 11:49 PMReply

I'm no expert but to me this looks like a cat. I have seen other pictures and the "dinosaur beak" looks like a cats skeletal nose, the skin has clearly damaged on this creature. Now you're probably asking, but what explains the frog looking feet? Well if you see the wrap on it's front legit looks as if there was some sort of surgical procedure. Well, as i said i'm no expert. But this isn't a monster, maybe a cruel animal test gone illegally wrong. This 'thing' was probably intentionally thrown into the ocean and washed up because no sea creature found it to eat. This is clearly an ordinary animal, just it's been rotting for a while. Posted 08/02/2008 7:04 PMReply

I can only focus on the fuzzy bump on its neck. :/
And, see the band around it's wrist. Does that look like leather? Maybe some sort of identification or what not. or it could just be seaweed.

@ Anonymous: The only reason that people are sayingthat it has a beak is because of the upper and lower jaws meeting at a point. If you look closly you can see the area where the snout would be, the cartalage has rotted away leaving the sinus cavity. Posted 08/03/2008 12:32 AMReply

Its an outcome of an failed government scientific research project. Projects was creating a species by taking genes from Man, Sea Turtle and a flying Lizard, so that the species can live in water, it can fly and also it will have brains like humans. It was good project but unfortunately failed as the newly born species tried to kill one of the scientists. Scientists claimed that within 3 years, they can create such species. But, I think they are doing Anti-Natural things and will dismantle the nature's balance. Posted 08/04/2008 06:20 AMReply

The Griffin is a legendary creature with the head, beak and wings of an eagle, the body of a lion and occasionally the tail of a serpent or scorpion. Its origin lies somewhere in the Middle East where it is found in the paintings and sculptures of the ancient Babylonians, Assyrians and Persians. In Greek mythology, they took gold from the stream Arimaspias and, neighbors of the Hyperboreans, they belonged to Zeus. The later Romans used them for decoration and even in Christian times the Griffin motif often appears. Griffins were frequently used as gargoyles on medieval churches and buildings Posted 08/04/2008 3:56 PMReply

Look Closely the upper jaw seems to be Beak like but yet the lower portion have teeth and it has a certain tooth that is parallel to the tip of the beak as if it were used for grabbing its prey. It also have front and back extremities with elongated fingers and an elbow so I personally do not believe the sea turtle without a shell myth. I do agree with Jeff Corwin that it is a carnivore of some sort but what i disagree with him on is that it is a raccoon. I will Not believe for one second that this creature is a raccoon. And i disagree with the statement that it is a dog. Dogs don't have beaks. Ok I'm tired of research and my fingers hurt so one question left to answer. Why are the creatures hands bound together?

It's pretty much my favorite animal. It's like a lion and a tiger mixed... bred for its skills in magic.

Come on everyone, lets be serious for a minute. Obviously it is not a Griffin, nor is it a turtle, nor is it a decendent of the loch ness monster. It is Hillary Clinton after a night w/Bill. Or, it could be my ex-mother-in-law. But its too tall. Posted 05/14/2009 01:42 AMReply

This is some dumb shit because no one had a video camera on the beach? how is it that no one had a video camera every time you go to a beach there's people with camera's right. And another thing where's the person that got the "monster" because if everyone knows that the media will pay some cash to be the first to film this "monster" live right I think this is just a fake.

What you are looking at is a river rat, river rats easily mutate depending on their enviroment, looks like you may have some interesting chemicals in it's water, I live in a river town, these wash up on shore all the time, dna analysis will prove me right. Posted 05/14/2009 10:00 AMReply
