A group of teenagers came across a new form of life in the Panamas. It was crawling out from a cave and, fearing that it might harm them, the teenagers beat it to death. The creature is presumed to be the Montauk monster – a hairless specimen with revolting features. Is this in the same league as the Loch Ness Nessie or the Himalayan Yeti – unexplained phenomenon? The group later returned to take photos which they have posted on the web – it has led to widespread speculation. Some of the reports suggest that it is the bloated carcass of a dog; another has labeled it as a discarded prop of some movie company. Its remains have vanished – a report mentions that an old man came and carted it away from the beach where it had been last seen.
