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

Considering Montauk has always been THE headquaters for testing alien equipment to playing God and creating new creatures, cloning people, splicing DNA, the works. There’s no question in my mind they’ve been dumping failed experiments and they just pay scientists off to lie about what they are, all while laughing at our ignorance. Hide in plain sight, no one will believe you when you find the truth,
its a fuckn manbearpig im super cereal guys
the picture above looks like a horse if u click on the picture u get a bigger copy and go to the head if u look from afar it lookz like a horse?!!
Hmmm. You certainly do have a problem. Several, actually. But one of the biggest problems is your expectation of financial reward. “If this is a genetic mishap from Plum Island, we’d like to sell the remains to an independent lab for study.” No one is going to pay you for a half rotted, unidentified corpse of some sort. No lab, no independent scientist, no professional expert of any sort.
No one is going to give you money on the premise that it might, just might, be from Plum Island, or melted out of some iceberg, or from another planet. You’ll have to find out for yourself, first.
If you truly wish to learn exactly what this creature is, you are going to have to take samples of it, and cough up the money to have it tested and analised. I suggest coughing up the bucks to have it looked at by at least two different private labs, independent of not only each other, but independent of state, federal or county government of any kind. Several labs would be even better. That would minimize the odds of your sample being ‘lost’, and maximize the possibility of finding out exactly what these creatures are and whether they are carrying disease or not.
Next time you get the chance to get up close and personal with one of these creatures, take some test tubes with you. Wear a respiratory mask. Wear some new rubber or latex gloves, not only to protect yourself but to keep the samples from becoming contaminated. With a very clean knife (I suggest wiping the knife down with rubbing alcohol prior to starting), cut some chunks of skin and place them in the test tubes. Some flesh from the hind leg or the chest area would be best, for tissue samples. Hair samples would also be relevant. An organ sample such as the liver or kidney would be very good. And a sample of brain tissue would be great! Place each sample in a separate test tube, cap the tubes, label each sample as it is put in the tube, and keep them cold until you deliver them to the labs. A small ice chest works well, but make sure that the tubes are wrapped so that they don’t make direct contact with ice. Frozen samples are harder to work with and identify correctly in some cases. Do not let any lab know that you are also having samples tested by any other lab. Do not publicly announce that this is being done until after you get the results.
Once you have the test results back, one of two things could happen. The creatures could be a known species that’s just rotted beyond recognition, or you have an unknown species on your hands. If it’s an unknown species, then perhaps there may be some sort of monetary reward.
But you’ll never get a lab to just buy the thing.
Good luck! I’m looking forward to finding out conclusively what they really are!
I just find it odd how the two monsters look COMPLETELY different (the first had a birds head!) yet they are the same thing???
The skeleton looks pretty normal to me. A sheep or a fat dog.
it looks lke a deformed dog with no hair or a skinned turtle with no shell!
but still its nothing ive ever seen
why has no one submitted this animal or part of it to a biologist/geneticist for a scietific evaluation and possible relation to existing animals?
There are a lot of things out there. but i think its a capibara, because capibaras are the largest rat,s known to man and live on the beaches of europe and uruguay and capibaras can swim.

it has the features of a pig ,a bear nd a sea turlte but with all these feature combined it looks like a griffion (minus the wings) from greek mythology maybe the griffion really did exist nd this is just an vestigal or primal form of the mythical creature. but most importantly why are these creatures rinsing up on shore why dont they investigate the nearby plum island or get an autopsy report . I beileve that they are just trying to keep the hype alive. I cant put my finger on it because its so damn decomposed and has very wierd structures the throws me off i would say its a sea turtle but its too friggin huge and has mammal like ears which leads to the conclusion of that of bieng a raccoon but still quite large and has beak ? its almost the size of bear but couldnt be according to the features above which leads me to believe a primal griffion i know it sounds crazy and stupid but look at the creature and then look pics of griffions on google or something just do it and tell me what u think?
what ever it is i would leave it alone. u don’t know what type of germs that thing has.
It really is interesting. I can see how some people can see it’s a hoax, but I think it really is real. It looks like a boxer dog mixed with a beaver or a sheep. You never know, it could be fake, or it could be an alien, or a government cover up. Only time will tell, or will it…(Disturbing mystery note)
I think the 2 incidents over the last year are NOT the same kind of animal. I think that is what is confusing most people. They both may come from the island though (experiments). I think the ‘bloated’ one is perhaps a penquin.
Look at this….
Sweet site dude, check out mine when you get a min……
it looks like a man bear pig or something. seriosly tho, it’s proabblay either an unknown species from hell or retarded pig. they should just do some dna testing to see if it’s just deformed or if it’s unknown.
It looks like a gryphon.
is not a shaved shep
those pichers are frexy i don’t belive in monsters but i do now and in one picher it look’s like it killd a dog or it ate it!
Its a jackle! Its a jackle! Is it a jackle? Its a jackle! Its a jackle!
ok the montauk monster might be a living fossil it might be the paradapeon a rhynchosaur or the lystrosaurus a dicynodon.the beak like mouth matches both of these prehistoric animals and the body,legs,and tail match also
It’s a bear… obviously floating for awhile. Some how ended up on shore….
Polar Bear Skull w/ Mandible…

Basically the same as what you saw (minus the jaw)

What a polar bear looks like in case you can’t see the resemblance.

Polar bear skeleton…
Water decay distorts the body of any animal to extreme levels, hence why the cause of death in murder cases involving such can’t be determined (Casey Anthony case in point)
My guess is that the mandible had fallen off of this bear during decay or had possibly been a snack…
Regardless, I think the bigger question for scientific purposes to be answer here is how the bear ended up in New York, unless you’re sick enough to take a dead polar bear corpse cross-country to prove some kind of corny monster theory….
Either way, if this bear actually floated that far (who knows if its actually a polar bear… it does look a bit small) I think it’d be interesting to find out more….
I initially saw the news clip on CNN news while visiting a friend in one of our local hospitals. The snout of the animal found is that of a dog while the massiveness of the body is the result of internal decomp of a body in water. While it makes for a sensational story, for true creditablity, a sample needs to be sent to a diagnostic lab for DNA indentification. All tissues (human to animal) bloat & enlarge after being in the water for a prolonged period. Once the decompostition gases escape, tissues absorb the water causing bloating. My only question lies with the reson this animal wasn’t consumed by fish and ocen-scavengers.
To the folks who “discovered” this, next time choose an animal with a less defined tail and a shorter snout/beak to claim it is a monster.
its most likely a bloated leopard seal that washed on shore.
If it smells and looks that bad,it might be my ex. Only problem, this has been in water which was against her beliefs.
its a shaved sheep.
I’m hmm, I’m lost for words. Ok, THIS IS NOT ANY DOMESTICATED ANIMAL! OR, A SEA ANIMAL, Deff. Not A DOG!
YES!!! Better equipment is needed to study this what ever it is, I do not believe that this person is intending to decieve the public. I would love to exam this,,, Whatever it is. & yes any place could be a cover up. Even Plum Island, how would we know, Hmmm? We did not have the chance to inspect it!? Measure it, IT IS NOT A TURTLE!!
It could be something no one has discovered yet, why do you think we get into the fields that we do? To Discover knew things. This could have washed up on the shore where in other times it may not have. But with global warming, and solar Ice Melting and the changes that are going on around us everyday. Anything is possible as far as that goes. But the right people need to inspect and exam this. Until he decides to do that, or ( insert your own thought here), happens to this thing and this person, we will not know, and we are only feeding into this frenzy by adding to this site. :-\
ummm those are definetely DEAD SNAKES
goshh you are all a bunch of blind losers on the internet HAHA!!!!
i dated a guy that looks jus like that!
what a loser i cant believe he cheated on my with a pig.
I am not a biologist, but an amature naturalist. I am 99% certain this is a baby hippo. The skin clearly resembles the folds and texture of a baby hippo, as does the skull and eye socket locations. The “beak” looks exactly like the top part of a hippo’s mouth, although it is difficult to see the bottom. I am sure this is a hippo, which if true begs the question…what in the world is a hippo doing on a long island beach???
oh ya btw…I forgot to mention that in my opinion the very first creature does not seem to be a beaver. Although I do understand that if the front incisors are removed that beaver cranium may seem like it possesses a beak, it is evident (at least from my observations…hoping that the pictures were not cleverly and anatomically photoshopped), that there is a difference in the dimentions between the frontal incisors (or where they used to be) and the molars in comparisson to a beaver’s skull. In an ordinary beaver’s skull there is a large amount of space between the incisors and the molars. Not only that but the nasal ridge is missing as well as several other features that would lead to the identification of a beaver. Another observable trait is that the lower jaw of a beaver is very weak. They have a severe over-bite. This creature, while it does seem like it does have an over-bite doesn’t have as much of an over-bite as a beaver would. Of course this could be a freaked out beaver…but really such a drastic change in a beaver would lead to the development of a new species.
Due to my experience in my line of work, I know very well how decomposing carcasses change and what they look like. The most drastic changes can be seen in the skin, but the severity of the discomposition depends on the environment. It is natural for the body to develop edema under normal circumstances. If the body begins to decompose in hypotonic water, however, it will look more like what beastie looks like. Yes, if the body has been out for weeks, then the hair will come off especially if the animal had a pre-existing skin condition such as sarcoptic mange or scabies. At this point it is almost impossible to tell what kind of animal it was…unless you look at the cranium. Based on what i saw from the video listed above, it does seem like it is a racoon. When compared to the very first picture of the Montauk monster, beastie doesn’t seem to have the same facial beak-like features. I’m sorry to say but that really is a racoon at least in my opinion. On the possitive note, the very first sighting of the Montauk monster, really I can’t explain. The physiology of the monster is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. It looks like a snapping turtle or any of its family members but none of these have any teeth like the creature shown and no turtle shell? I’d love to see more of this first creature.

It surprises me that only two people have mentioned the MAN BEAR PIG! though i believe they would only be half right… i think its some sort of alien hybrid of man bear pig and franken turtle-dog-penguin developed by the government trying to create a super beast… dubbed Man Pig Turtle Penguin Dog Pig Or MPTPDP V.1.00.17 (cause you know its not the only one.) anywho i need to go make some tinfoil hats for my kids… tata for now.
It is plain to me that one is a pig,and the other is a dog,get real
Baby Moeritherium 36-33 million years ago
It is difficult, but I think it is old corpse of a cow. I saw other picture and skull of this animal – or something – look like the cow´s skull. It is my opinion.
It’s an alligator snapping turtle minus the shell…. Look it up
the second animal looks like a boar. They are a type of wild pig that has hair just like on the side of that animal. I like in Alabama and we have a ton of them here. They have tails, just like the one in the picture, and teeth just like that.
The first one looks way too deformed to tell, but the second I am sure resembles a wild boar.
I think from the picture of the first one. It appears to be a sea turtle without its shell. Could they be dying from something? Are they be killed for their shells?
listen people this thing is not a disease, this is not a raccoon or a dog, it is something that we have no clue about,its a creature we havent seen before, i have studied a canine skull and a racoon skull and even a beaver skull they are close but it is different so get those dumb ideas out of ur head its not either of those, its not fake like this guy aboe me says, its real and we need to take time and study this seriously
maybe it is one of these…http://news.softpedia.com/newsImage/Fossil-Ancestor-of-Humans-and-Primates-Is-47-Million-Years-Old-2.jpg/
its not a monster. there are many deaseases that make animals look like this. and theres alos decay and bloating from being in water and wasnt this found in water? it looks like a racoon that drowned. its like the chubracabra or whatever its fake.
Because there have been 2 of these found,both about the same stage of decay & same general area and unknown to most folks as to what they are,my hypothesis (I haven’t read all the other answers as I am a very busy single mom) they may be prehistoric animals, frozen for millions of years in permafrost that now, because of global warming,have thawed and drifted in the same Atlantic current to the same area of the east coast…Although I’m not a skeptic when it comes to aliens from other worlds,in this case,I think this is a more plausible explanation.
It’s the Chupacabra!!!
Hi,
I saw your quick interview today on Fox.This reminds me of that show ’surface’.If everyone is so quick to discredit this thing as a hoax,why won’t any one test it and see what it really is..Makes you wonder.Plum Island or the Island of Dr. Moreau.?
IT’S E.T DOG OR CAT OR GOAT OR SOMETHING
IT’S MY MOTHER-IN-LAW!!!
Wait, she’s uglier than that.
It is a dead sheep. It is pretty apparent.
It is a raccoon. I have seen plenty of them dead to know what one looks like.
They are creatures that are being discovered all over the world that humans have never seen before, or least the set of humans that is inhabiting this dirt ball currently. I don’t know what this thing is, but for people to rule out the possibility that it is an undiscovered creature, that we (human-kind) with our all-knowing (ha) science couldn’t possibly now be exposed to something we’ve never encountered is pretty damn haughty and foolish, as all haughtiness is. I think its one of the many, many creatures that humans haven’t encountered for at least a couple of centuries, maybe more.
