Since I started this blog last summer, I’ve dedicated quite a bit of time to debunking all theories presented regarding the Montauk Monster. Was it a dog? Was it a pig? A viral marketing ploy? Honestly, it really doesn’t matter at this point as the original carcass was stolen and later disintegrated into a “ball of goo”.
On Wednesday May 5th 2009, I was contacted by a couple that sent a message to the general e-mail box on this website claiming they think they’ve found what appears to be the Montauk Monster. Naturally, I questioned it thinking it was BS, but they seemed credible enough (after a phone conversation of course) to take an hour drive to Southold and see it for myself up close and personal.
Upon discovery, it resembled what everyone saw last summer. This monster was located in Southold, NY on the Bay Area. For those who are unfamiliar with the area, this is the North Fork of Long Island. The beast smelled like a mix of low-tide and rotten garbage. It really smelled horrific. I couldn’t help but take numerous pictures of it and video clips.
The couple who tipped me off loaded the carcass into a garbage bag and took it home with them. We’ve been in correspondence numerous times and have agreed that for the remainder of the week, we’d keep this matter to ourselves. The remains are currently located in Southold in a cooler full of ice.
I wanted to think about the best way to expose this to the public. Since I own this medium, and have a genuine interest in the subject matter, I’d like to be the first to share this you. We did not contact any authorities as from previous experiences; the carcass has been taken from the finders or mysteriously “stolen”. If this is a genetic mishap from Plum Island, we’d like to sell the remains to an independent lab for study. It has become a race against the clock as the couple who originally found “Beastie” are diligently putting more ice into the cooler to keep the carcass fresh.
Also, I’ve thought about the possibilities that this carcass may be carrying H1N1 influenza. (The Swine Flu) Sorry, my mind is racing now, but I haven’t ruled out biological warfare on this yet. A diseased carcass floating in waterways around Long Island could be infecting the water, fish, etc. We still need to remember that Plum Island is where Lyme Disease originated, it’s really not too far fetched to believe that this carcass (if from Plum Island) could be carrying bacteria or disease.
Here is a video clip of our discovery:
After viewing this video above, please keep in mind that my intentions are not waste your time with a recreation of the Blair Witch Project. This video was taken at night on the beach where the monster was found. (Founder’s Landing Park, Southold NY)
I would like your honest opinion even you tell me “it’s a dog!” My intentions from the beginning have been to inform my readers of “The Truth, The Legend, and The Mystery” behind The Montauk Monster, a 2008 phenomenon. Additionally, I’m not interested in going on the Geraldo Rivera show like my buddy Mike did last summer as an eyewitness. It’s a tempting offer taking a limousine full of champagne sent by Geraldo to a TV studio, but I’ll take this time now to politely decline.
Here’s the deal:
I’m only interested in dealing with publications who have a genuine interest in this story, or have previously covered the Montauk Monster. I’m not looking to waste my time or the media’s. I have over 70 high quality pictures that I took personally from a Lumix digital camera (14.7 megapixels) which includes close-ups and multiple angles of The Montauk Monster.
If your publication is interested in obtaining exclusive pictures of The Montauk Monster or would like to interview Nicky Papers (yours truly!) please e-mail us. Local laboratories and independent research firms I encourage to contact us as well as we’d like to receive conclusive results as to what the Montauk Monster really is.
What do you think this monster is? Comment here.
Kind regards and best wishes,
Nicky Papers

Actually, If you look at the video, I think it’s too big to be a raccoon, and a sheep would have thinner legs, a dog’s limbs aren’t shape like that, the hind ones would have a distinct bone structure, and a dog’s skull would be much different. It looks to me like a young bear, although they may not be indigenous to that area, perhaps some kind of animal testing facility is dumping them? I can’t say I COMPLETELY think this is a bear but the one featured in the video clip looks quite a bit like one.
Well, from what I am seeing, the first one had some distinct differences from the second and third, as the final two look relatively the same. For starters, the first MM (Montauk Monster) has elongated fingers that seemed to be webbed. In addition to that, its lower jaw was that of some type of canine whereas the upper jaw was not a jaw, but an avian beak! Going along with the Plum Island genetic mishap theory, I do say that the first MM was a canine fetus (Or a canine somewhere in its early stages of development) that was crossed or somehow spliced with a sort of avian DNA by force. Truly disturbing in my opinion, yet at the same time FASCINATING!! Now, getting to the other two MMs, the first did look like a giant, bloated and hairless bear, like Myka had said earlier. What I’d like to know is how come no one has started or opened discussion on the bare skulls on the creature. Why is it the flesh upon ONLY the skull was degenerated in the two later MMs? I can’t even think of an explanation… perhaps when they were trying to crossbreed two animals (If that is the case) that the creature never developed tissue over its skull for the strange mutation in its DNA? Email me at Kaelnarae@live.com with any ideas on this…NIKKI!! THAT MEANS YOU!! =]
“What Was The Montauk Monster?”
http://scienceblogs.com/tetrapodzoology/2008/08/the_montauk_monster.php
i think it is one of those sience breading things because it has ineresting limbs and parts …so i personaly think that a sciectist created this “monster”.
I think all of these sitings are just washed up dogs that are used as shark bait. As cruel as that is, it happens. They put the hooks in near the dogs noses which would probably explain the loss of skin and tissue around there in most of the pictures. And clearly what appears to be a beak on the “monster” is just an illusion and is actually a part of the skull; without teeth.
WAsnt it proven already that the first “monster” was really just a bloated raccoon carcass and that the beak was really just the fact that the upper jaw was missing a chunk. I remember seeing a comparison shot of a raccoon skull and the monsters head and it was identical.
Im wondering with all that has been photographed of this “animal’ has it been investigated and had an autospy to determine what it is?? theres nothing stated as to the carcass being examined or tests done on it by anyone therefore how is one to actually take a guess at what is might be??How else are we going to know if it hasnt been examined and maybe found to be a mutant of some sort from an awful experiment gone wrong or from a pollutant we arent sure of yet, or a mutant type of aquatic animal that evolved badly. I think these are fair questions to inquire first, then proceed after it has been examined.
Well, I’m an animal biologist. My specialty is herps (lizards, snakes, frogs, etc.) and from the look of the carcasses and the numerous necropsies I’ve done on reptiles this does not look like any kind of decaying lizard. At first glance I thought it may be a canine. I have to admit though that the comparisons to a raccoon are quite convincing. It definitely does not resemble any marine mammal either. The body style is not indicative of seals or otters. It’s got me stumped, but very interested. And I must say that I looked through your other video clips of pics you have acquired and although some of them seem quite obvious to be fabricated, there are a lot of them that just made me stop and look a little closer. I would love to be involved in researching some of these interesting creatures:)
its a raccoon
Well on my opinion its a mutation whit a pig and some other animal similar to a bird or turtle, i say its from a pig since they say the pig carries the swine flu whit it.
Impossible to tell what that is from pictures, or even by seeing it and examining it. You need to contact a zoologigal geneticist and run tissue, hair and DNA samples. That is if you really want to know what it is, or isn’t.
Well from what i can tell it is a animal i think the bigger question is way dosen’t the animal control,government look into this and find out what these animals are and where they are coming from.
If this is a regular thing happening then this is animal crulty at it finest.
It is heart breaking that there is no body concern for animals dieing regardless if its dog or any other animal.
And people exsploting there death is even sadder then there death.
The most important thing is to take tissue samples placed in formaldehyde to prevent degeneration. next buy a second hand or new chest freezer or ice cream refrigerator with a temperature of -18 or lower. keep at secure secret location. ( I mean ONLY you & person who is storing it) could be worth a small fortune suddenly…
Get tissue samples tested by private independent laboratory for animal/fish DNA match. It would be a good Idea to send a sample to the natural history museum exhibition road in London sw7 England who given its history will probably test free of charge. If this is something new or undiscovered with paperwork from them I am sure large news companys would pay handsomely for an exclusive until then you have nothing but rumour hearsay & hype,& rotten meat!
It’s obvious fake.
1 – You’re taking a video at night!
2 – Daytime pictures you guys take are fake. Why stop using videos?
3- You guys just want to see yah fake photos to a stupid media.
4 – Stop trying to bring back montauk monster, it’s dead, it’s over, it wont be the next lochness monster, it won’t be the next new jersey devil.
Holy crap.
WTF IS WRONG WHY IS THIS THING IN A COOLER GET IT TOO A LAB SO IT CAN BE CHECKED OUT PROPERLY STOP WASTING EVERYONES TIME WE WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH.
I have been trying to make contact with you silly humans for years, coming in a different form everytime, but before I actually make contact – I get killed by kids with rocks like seen in this website:
http://www.myfoxmaine.com/dpp/news/dpgo_montauk_monster_panama_lwf_091809_3579377
Maybe next time, I will come as the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man and goo the whole world!
i think it is a pisheturtlepant
no no no no no. it’s not a stolen specimen, silly. it’s another specimen. i swear to everything i saw one myself on a lake michigan beach in evanston, IL, about six summers ago. i was not cool enough or good enough a swimmer to be a lifeguard, but i was smart enough to work at the beach all summer, so i worked the gate selling tickets. coupla kids come and get me from the beach to come look at this dead thing they found by the breaker wall, this was south blvd. beach. i’m going overboard with the details sos you know i’m serious as a heart attack. i humor the kids, i go look at this thing, and i simply could not identify it. it was plausible to me that it could be a fox carcass, bloated from being in the lake for a period of time, or maybe a raccoon–but it was hairless, and had queer appendages and something a little too much like a beak to go with the otherwise mammalian looking body proportions. it was bloody weird, whatever the f it was, but i kicked sand over it and waved the kids off. the boss had said on the radio that he didn’t need attention from the city or papers over a dead critter on the beach. all i can say in my defense is that i must not have had the imagination at the time to appreciate what i had seen, nor the implications. my eyebrow lifted in both instances of the montauk monster, if i didn’t start a blog, sue me. but now this panamanian/martian sloth, and my man nicky’s video, i mean–wow.
we have multiple REPORTED sightings within just a few years’ time, and godknowshowmany UNREPORTED sightings all around the world. we got chupacabras, shoot, we got that in every country. now to my mind, that leaves two possibilities. there are creatures on this planet from bygone eons who have survived either in utter isolation in a small but self-propagating population for millenia or, like nessie, are just the one survivor, stretching their lifespan hundreds-fold. OR. they’re aliens. i favor the alien theory, its more fun, and frankly, more probable.
get outside the box of terran logic and order, folks. these creatures don’t look like ANYTHING we’ve got, after all our eons of evolution, most species on Earth being well-developed and appropriately armed for our environs. these things, we’re finding one at a time, horribly pathetic, wretched looking, DEAD. ALONE. not survivors, not ready for our planet, our atmosphere, whatever. and i think it works TO the theory that none of them looks exactly like any of the others. some a little close, but with big differences. maybe they’re all different species all from different planets. do they look like astronauts, though, to you? no of course they don’t. they look like alien cats, raccoons, turtles, sloths, whatever. THATS BECAUSE THEY’RE ALIEN CATS, RACCOONS, TURTLES, SLOTHS, WHATEVER! the aliens are tossing them down here, to see if they can survive. they may even be treating each little critter space pioneer with alien pharmaceuticals to improve their chances of survival, who knows what number trial they’re on!
What troubles me is that they didn’t just contact our Earth scientists. This shows a certain degree of subterfuge, mistrust. Furthermore, if they think they’re being secretive, that’s sort of an underestimation. I figured it out, and i’m nothin special.
peace, fellow travelers.
I guess this
http://61.135.142.194:89/gate/big5/bbs.chinanews.com.cn/thread-1146025-1-1.html
looks to me like its a big tortoise or turtle without the shell if not its one odd creature..may be another wierd thing that lives in the sea down deep enough we havent discovered yet i dunno
i think it looks more like a cross of a pig and sum kind of bird its kinda a scray picture i would want that to wash up any where i am.
I think that it is real because me myself am a person to believe stuff like that. but you never know till you find out u kno. so let us know as soon as possible so you can show all those a**wholes that some things in this world are true.
At first I thought it was a alien as the theories mentioned earlier,I don’t really see that human scienes could be so sloppy that they would throw away any experiment that could get washed up the shores so anyone can see them.
But one thing I have heard,is that that it has been found dead alien bodies before all around the world,but wheter this MM is really something like alien,I do not know,only belive,good luck to try finding out.
i have a similar monster at my apartment complex but it is alive. but at first we thought it was a horse because of the hoof resembling prints but then a lady hit it with her car and it just ran away after tearing up her transmission she described the creature as having webbed feet. i think the ones that yall hav seen are babies because the adult that lives behind the appartments seems to have some sort of armored carapace like a turtles but harder. i went there once and it stole my helmet. i stabbed it once, but it just walked away, i also slashed it with a friends knife but came up with sumthin that looked like dry mud. and it has been breeding, it has a baby that has jumped out of a tree and landed on my back it was as bear as these pictures show they are. the grownup is as tall as a car and it emits a strange screeching cry which led me to belive at first it was a migrated jersy devil but its amphibious and can jump long distances and hights. i found out that there was a duck guarding the lake he knows how to talk, aparently sumone taught him lines from bevis and butthead like ” ARE U THREATENING ME???!!!” TEEPE FR MY BUNGHOLE” yknow stuff like that. he also made a dam out of mud, grass and his own excriment. the lake behind the complex and he only lets you in if u give him bread peices, he has fought this thing several times and the last time i saw him he was flying off into the woods squaking TEEPEE!! and a day later the duck was gone and the dam was down
what s this ,i guess this one
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IS THAT THING SHIT MAN GET THET THING TO A VOLCANO TO BURN UP ITS GROSS
WTF
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why don’t you contact the people at Project Camelot, care of Bill Ryan and Kerry Cassidy? This is something that their specialist scientist friends and whistleblowers can identify for you, if it is a part of a secret government project or not.
Their website URL is http://www.projectcamelot.org.
Good luck!
The poor animal is obviously a turtle without a shell, its blatently obvious and iv only seen photos and a bit of video footage, im suprised hardly any1 has realised this already, poor animal, such a shame.
The animal you found appears to be a large raccoon. The original ‘monster’ has all the markings of a large koala bear. Floating the ocean will bloat and distort a carcass. Plus, fish and other sea creatures likely nibbled on the animals remains – in both cases.
its distorted from decomp and was a ratlike creature called a nutria.their feet look freaky and have a big tail like a dog. its probably not really a beak ,looks like one though.
Love it! You rock.
This is obviously an alien/unknown species. It is a possibility that Men In Black have kept this “monster” a secret. I just have a feeling the Men In Black are responsible for this matter.
by the way, jake that is total bs.
MAYBE ITS HITLER TESTING ON ANIMALS INSTEAD OF HUMANS THIS TIME
Thank you for writing this, I can not find an information which is so clear and through up to now.
Nice post, nice blog, I was searching for this nowadays, thank you.
The book “Supernatural” by Graham Hancock might shed some light on this one. Give it a read, see if all the crazy stuff you read in the news and books doesnt start to make perfect sense!
I think it’s a dog. Lots of dogs have webbed feet, from being in the water for a period of time and bloating , it would lose it’s fur. It appears to have pads on it’s feet also. There would be no reason for that if it was a water creature.
It’s a turtle with its shell torn off.
I think it is a washed up polar bear.
Seriously? The first time I saw the “monster” the only thing I could think of was a POLAR BEAR! How, in all these comments are people seeing a canine like animal with white fur and not instictively guessing Polar Bear? Some people point to the fact that it has an avian beak.. but with some very quick research (took me 5 seconds to find on google) you can look up polar bear sketelon (look it up yourself, the url was way too long to post) and voila, the skull looks very similar to the skull in the first video. The skull of a polar bear could look somewhat beak-like, especially after being ravaged by the ocean and marine scavangers before washing up on shore. Plus look at where these “monsters” are washing up. Montauk, which after another quick trip to google search for arctic ocean currents, happens to lie right in line with currents that could have brought a dead polar bear down from Canada or Greenland. After all, polar bears die as a result of drowning all the time due to the receding of their usually thick arctic ice hunting grounds. And the other one washed up in northern Michigan, another place where a polar bear could have washed up from Canada. Seriously people, there is no such thing as monsters. Find new species, maybe, but put a little more thought into this before claiming spotting of aliens or the like. I could be wrong, but the fact no one even considered that this thing is a Polar Bear astounds me.
it look like a ugly peace of shit
Well i obvisouly think that the montauk monster is mixed with some kind of sick human who made s*x with a animal if you kind of look at it.I,ve never seen nothing like this in chicago.But im not sure it could be anything but all i know its not a monster,to be honest it probly thought we were the monster.Who could be right god make many of things it more than one species in this universe!
