Here's the latest on the Montauk Thing, courtesy of The Anomalist:
Cryptid Washes Ashore at Montauk Cryptomundo. Loren Coleman, noted cryptozoologist, author and lecturer, was the first to alert us about this odd "creature," directing us to Gawker, where we found Dead Animal Washes Ashore in Montauk. Several hours later, Gawker followed up with Montauk "Dead Monster" Maybe Tied to Cartoon Network. So, we're still left wondering whether this is real or not. If it turns out to be a hoax, it wouldn't be the first, of course, as seen in Monkey from Mars: A Ga. Crime Lab's Museum Oddity.
