What Washed Up on the beach Montauk, NY? Help Solve this Mystery! photo by Jenna Hewitt 
Wild speculation has been ignited on the internet over a weird looking animal that was photographed on the beach in Montauk.
Jenna Hewitt snapped a photo of the thing in front of the Surfside restaurant .
.
Conspiracy theorists have long speculated on the so-called Montauk Project, alleged to be secret government projects for the purpose of developing psychological weapons. The photo has fueled postings that the "beast" is linked to the shuttered tests.
Wildlife experts have been quoted on various sites with much less exciting theories of a dead animal like a dog or raccoon.
'Alien' creature creates monster stir
THE photograhed remains of a mysterious "creature" washed up on a Long Island beach near New York has led to a frenzy of online speculation.
Hot on the heels of claims from an ex-NASA astronaut about aliens visiting Earth, news of the find has excited conspiracy theorists around the world.
Dubbed the Montauk Monster after the Long Island town where it was found, the creature has prompted speculation it was part of a secret mutant breeding program undertaken by the US Government.
The Huffington Post has even given the creature its own blog.
Meanwhile, gawker.com, which helped break the story, has sought to explain the phenomenon as a viral marketing stunt for a new US TV cartoon series.

ok, its not a turtle because, as some people have said, the shells are attached at the spine. that is a real fact, look it up.
its not a frikin donkey! or a horse, unicorn, griffon! think logically.
aliens are always a possibility, but probably not. its freaky but it looks pretty earthly.

ok so one thing i kno for sure is tht its pretty freaky and ive asked sum of the people at my work, and i've cum up with some possible answers. maybe it's because all you pervs dnt give a crap about the world and just dump stuff into the ocean, and maybe harsh chemicals screwed the poor thing up. this is a rly big hint from god saying stop treating this beautiful planet like crap! i also have looked up on the internet, and as u may know ppl have gone to heaven (abuot to die) but doctors have saved them, and they can remember wht it was like. sum ppl have said theyve only seen white and heard their names, and sum ppl say tht they can c animals, and have written books about their experience. they describe EXACTLY this animal. so wakey-wakey idiots, lets do something about this, cmon get ur head outta ur ass!
=) i think i proved my point.
