Mysterious Earth

Well this one is apparently all over the internet.  A creature washed up on the beaches of Long Island New York in the Montauk area.

Wild theories abound…but this has got to be the very best one of all:

We don’t to panic anyone, but a minion of Satan just washed up on a beach in Montauk, New York. The beast looks a bit like a dog with the sharp beak of an eagle, or possibly a shell-less turtle with the dark eyes of a griffin. Either way, it’s definitely a portent of the coming apocalypse.

This quote was found at KRLD originally from a British site Asylum. Of course, these are most likely the type of folks who see Jesus and Mary in their toast.

Here’s the “mysterious” Montauk Monster:

And here’s a map of the area where this beast washed up:

Now we here at Mysterious Earth ain’t the most erudite folks on this planet, but our money is that this is a turtle without a shell (granted bloated from being in the water). Look at the front “hands” and the beak - photoshop a shell over this thing and you have a turtle!
