To those who insist that it's a turtle you should know that turtles don't have teeth.

Maybe it's something Lizzy Grubman ran over. Lizzy washes ashore next week.

While I do believe we've polluted the earth enough to create such a beast, I think this is a hoax. Too many things don't add up. Mar-ket-ing.

Judging by the offensive, repugnant features and the putrid condition of the body I'd say it's George W Bush. But then again it might only be wishful thinking on my behalf. But we can still always hope, right?.

I like how the kids have it in a bag... so bring it to CNN and they'll do a live show with a vet -- get some DNA tests and make this monster a show... I'll bet it'll air on FOX and Budweiser will sponsor it.

maybe it wasn't a dangerous monster... maybe it was friendly! and yeh, +1 to the "it's Lizzy Grubman"

Funny how people are more willing to believe that an alien species watched up on a New York beach rather than a dead mammal carcass that looks suspiciously like a bloated dog. Gee, which is more probable???

turtles don't have ears like that. neither do seals (what one of the stories suggested it was).

How come "A Bloated News Story" isn't one of the options to vote for?

Who's keeping the remains in a box? Yesterday I thought someone took it away. Should be easy to identify once it's on a lab table. I hope it is a monster though.

I really want it to be a monster. We're soooo ready for a real monster! We've been waiting for sooo long! That said, I think it's probably a dog.

There is some kind of weird animal in the Bronx Zoo's indoor jungle exhibit that looks just like that thing. Damned if I remember what it is though or know why it might be washing up dead on Long Island.

I choose D and the whole thing is viral marketing campaign for an upcoming movie. The "monster" is probably a puppet a la Charlie White Also here's Charlie White's website... http://www.charliewhite.info/sub/work/1999.html This story reeks...
