SO
I was just reminded about the
Montauk Monster.
Essentially, a quadruped recently washed ashore in Montauk, NY. Most likely it was some sort of 4-legged beast's carcass diluted by the water.
This cryptid is, like TOTALLY hot right now.
Even
Fox News is on it. DAMN it's been a while since a cryptid has penetrated into pop culture.
