A bizarre animal corpse has washed up on a Canadian beach, reviving memories of the infamous "Montauk monster" that was discovered in 2008.Locals in a small Canadian town have been stumped by the appearance of the creature which was dragged from a lake.
Its long hairy body with bald skin on its head, feet and face, has prompted wild internet speculation that it is a more evolved version of the famous "Montauk monster" which is believed to be either some sort of raccoon or creative latex work.
The creature was discovered by two nurses in the town of Kitchenuhmaykoosib in Ontario, Canada, while out on a walk with their dog.
When the dog began sniffing in the lake, the two women started investigating before the dog pulled the dead animal out.
After taking some photographs of the odd animal, the nurses left it alone. When locals decided to go back and retrieve the body, it has disappeared.
The lake has been dragged, but the creature wasn't found.
There has been much speculation about what kind of species the animal is. The body of the creature appears to look something like an otter, while its face - complete with long fang-like teeth, bears a striking resemblance to a boar-like animal.
Even the local police chief Donny Morris is baffled, reportedly saying: "What it is, I don't know. I'm just as curious as everyone else."
Some bloggers have speculated that the new creature discovered is a type of chupacabra, or "goatsucker".
The chupacabra is rumoured to inhabit parts of the US, with many several hundred eyewitness accounts over the past few years. But despite these sightings, the majority of biologists and wildlife experts believe the chupacabra is a modern legend.
