It ’s that time again , peeress and gentlemen : another mysterious sea fauna , or part of one , has washed up somewhere and thoughts as to what it could be are cascading across the Web . Before even seeing the footage or photographs , we had already bet that it ’s a disintegrate hunchback whale because , well , it always is . So what ’s the story this time around ?
First reported byFirst Coast News , the new nameless plenty was found on a beach within the Wolf Island National Wildlife Refuge , in southerly Georgia . It ’s report that a man out on a boat with his Logos “ institute his own adaptation of the Loch Ness Monster ” , something that excellently has n’t been find and definitely does n’t exist .
The web notes that the comparison stems from the tales of a local fabled animal namedAltamaha - ha . Named after the river in which it is articulate to hold up , artwork of it seems to evoke it resemble aplesiosaurof some sort , one of an edict of large carnivorous nautical reptiles that lived during the sovereignty of the dinosaurs .
This new blob unquestionably is n’t Altamaha - ha , because his / her ilk died out during the asteroid - force putsch de seemliness that contribute the dinosaurian monarchs crashing down . Incidentally , it ’s not exonerated that any plesiosaurs occupied river , and instead were exclusively nautical piranha .
In fact , at first , the boat pair of humans suspected it might be a utter seal , one that was being furiously pecked at by a hefty heron – but judging by the footage , it looks like a really rubbish fashion model of a preposterously bantam plesiosaur .
Considering that Altamaha - ha , or “ Alty / Altie ” as it is dearly known by the locals , is often used to attract people to the arena , there ’s a right chance that this is a hoax . That ’s certainly good than a dead local fable or a pungent , rotting seal stiff , anyway .
evidently , the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is look into it , but in the meanwhile , theformerUS Fish and Wildlife Service director , Daniel Ashe , state oneoutletthat it could be a decomposingbasking shark .
We ’ll let you know if any more updates get along in or the mystery is work out , but do n’t expect to have your mind blown .
