‘Sea Monster’ Remains Found on Scottish Beach
The sizeable remains of a mysterious sea creature washed ashore in Scotland in February 2020. The curious carcass reportedly appeared on a beach near the port city of Aberdeen after a powerful storm swept over the area.
A picture of the oddity subsequently appeared on a community Facebook page with a caption asking “any ideas what it could be?” As one can imagine, there were a variety of suggestions and theories put forward by people online.
The primary prosaic explanations offered were a whale, a dolphin, or a thresher shark. Of course, with the creature having been discovered on a beach in Scotland, a popular possibility which kept coming up was that it was, in fact, the Loch Ness Monster.
Alas, since the remains are rather badly decomposed, a marine biologist conceded that it’s difficult to know precisely what the animal had once been. Think you can solve the mystery? Share your best guess with us at the Coast to Coast AM Facebook page.
More than 2000 votes were cast on an online poll which was staged by the Liverpool Echo. The majority of voters (44 percent) said they thought it was a publicity stunt.
Runner up in the vote was a whale (41 percent), with the monster itself scoring just eight percent.
However, voters’ last suggestion was that of a dinosaur which managed to garner seven percent of the vote.
No other options were offered in the vote.

Not much to go on here but it reminded me of the large bedraggled sea monster netted by the Japanese trawler in 1977. It appeared to be a creature claimed by the evolutionist to have been extinct for over 60 million years. In 1938 a Coelacanth fish supposedly also extinct for over 60 million years was caught. Since then several more have been hauled in.
What can be expected from the Paleontology racket, especially after the recent article in PSI where these “scientists” after discovering dinosaur fossils in the arctic (which we had known about for decades) concluded that these huge reptiles must have grown feathers in order to withstand the -50 degree temperatures. We are still waiting for an explanation on the recent discovery of the remains of blood vessels, tissue and ligament in tyrannosaurus fossils. Are they still supposed to have gone extinct over 60 million years ago? I think that was the old meteorite story.

Are they seeking a “consensus science” identification?
