Mystery solved, its a manati (retarded porpoise/dolphin) getting banged by a seal that does not frown on inter species breeding. The flippers being waved around is the single for the other seals to get in line. The manati is in the motion in the ocean. All aboard. toot toot!
I am from indian river county and have seen them. as well as friends. i do not believe they are a sea monster, manatee, or seal. Its to big to be a seal. and the facial features are different from a manatee. however i do believe they could be a different species of manatee that has yet to be charted
There used to be a native seal species in Florida it was the Caribbean Monk Seal but it said to be Extinct since the 1960s, there have been some sightings over the years but some say that they could be hooded seals or common seals, however I have hope that some might still exists to this day, there is some talk of bring Hawaiian Monks to Florida, so you never know.
There are no seals of any kind in fl. Ive lived here my whole life. Its a manatee. Ive grown up on the water and used to see them every day . When I was a kid I used to swim with them. Its a manatee.
Whiever idiot wrote Leopard seal....haha....do you know where seal lives in the first place??? They move in groups.....not isolatedly......this is some kind of serpent....but it does look large.......
it's much larger then any leopard seal i have seen, and besides i don't think seal's can live in florida because of the climate, but not many creatures with a trident tail do either...
Keep in mind that we have not discovered all life on this planet yet and that is a fact, and yet you people still disagree on saying that it could be something we don't quite understand.
@MrKyle0666 There's no way to gauge the size of this creature. There's nothing of known size close to the creature(s) that can be used for size comparison. The behavior I saw in the video was a lot like that of the sea lions we have here in California. They bask in the water with flippers sticking up, apparently as a cooling mechanism. I know that seaa lions are not native to Florida, but they could be escapees from some marine park, or maybe the Navy let them go...
Look up sea elephant on youtube. You'll see just what this mystery creature is. It has the large trident shaped tail, just like the one in this video. I'm not a marine biologist but, I even found proof of what your looking at. These experts are clueless.
It's a manatee, plain and simple. You don't need a degree in Biology to see that. You can see the head of the manatee at 0:12. I think the weird tail has to do with the manatee getting hit by a boat propeller
To each their own. It looks like a family of some sort of big seals, which still would be an excellent find if it turns out to be a "thought to have been over killed or extinct animal." Whatever these creatures are they should be protected!
@mcworker17 oh thanks for your super great comment. Guess what, no they didn't. That is not a sea cow I have studied them for years and anyone that is saying that is a liar.
@bazildaddy it could not be anything else other than some kind of manatee or sea cow maybe a seal but its not some relic population they went EXTINCT thats what happens when a species cannot adapt to a changing enviourment or if it was one why didnt it evolve huh?
@mcworker17 I assume you mean the proveable meaning in which natrual selection takes place. First off have you ever dug through rock layers yourself for fossils? If you had you would find that there are many living things today that look the same. Millions of years is a impossible fairy tale. It is no more relic than a lizard or croc. Things in the ocean and water stay hidden much better. Even things on land have not changed that much ask the people from the Congo what they see all the time.
@bazildaddy they went extinct man ask any scientist and they will tell you the same man unless you are a retarded creationist you gotta believe that they went extinct
@mcworker17 lol I believe they call you a useful idiot. This animal will be seen more and filmed much more. Not every animal in the film was the same and non were sea cows. Sorry your belief system doesn't allow for all options. Time will tell who the retard so get your helment on and wait for more footage it is pretty amazing!
search this on youtube....leopard seal hit search and click on the one titled "Face-off with a deadly creature" could this be the creature?? comes close...even the rear flipers look like a tail at 0:55.
@Nemesis0300 OMG you're the only one that has come close to bringing up any animal that even resembles this creature. It's soo close only thing that gets me is the color but WOW man! Great find! Even that tail is the same nice and even not like the manatees that have been hit.
@rosepetal108 It's actually a bearded seal. I we were both close, but they found it. Both are dangerous and can go on land, lol. Lucky camera guy, a leapord seal would of slaughtered him for no good reason.
I saw something somwhere that showed pretty clearly that this thing is a manateew ith a damaged tail. In fact, what I saw was a video of the manatee swimming around with its misshapen tail.
Though I am a BIG believer in cryptids, this has more of a similarity towards a fairy tale creature than something existing logically. There would need to be a population, however small there, to hold such a creature, and seeing as the place is rather small for an animal of this size, it just doesn't seem logical, though I could easily be wrong, and I'm sure I'll get lots of typical YOU'RE SO WRONG comments on this. Try me, I know my stuff.
Actually no. It's not a manatee with a damaged tail. There are two shots of this animal's tail where it is obviously not damaged but a trident shape. If it were damaged it would be jagged and scarred, which it is not. While I don't believe this is a so called "monster" it's not a manatee either. My bet is on something we either didn't know about, or thought was no longer alive. Also, the head is way out of proportion for a manatee.
Just a thought, but what if it's possibly a new species of manatee that has never been seen before? Or a genetic mutation that's developed over the past few decades? That is well within the realm of reasoning nowadays.
@PAAGddss It's more likely that it is a new species, than a new breed of a species. That's actually mathematically true with the number of counted species in the ocean.
@Nemesis0300 The word "breed" refers are creatures that created through human intervention (selective breeding), like breeds of dogs, breeds of cats, breeds of cattle, etc. The word you're looking for is either "race" or "subspecies", which is when different populations of a given species diverge from each other through isolation or other factors. Also, what is mathematically true? There is no known number of species in the ocean - there are always new ones being found.
I really don't think it's a manatee i mean look at the tail...it's like a tridant, i know that manatees are hurt by boat propellers but i dont think that it can make that perfect shape in the tail, also in another video the head is slightly different from that of a manatee, there are many undiscovered animals that us humans don't know about, it's a possibility that there is something in the Florida waters.
I hate you fucking morons who come on here and post something irrational and leave. Mantatees are a fat creatures. This creature's tail or body is incredibly long, with a small fin on the back. Almost like a whale manatee mix -- but the face is wrong. It has to be a mammal, only they bath in the sun like that. Trust me I have been studying ocean biology since 1997 as a profession. This has features that mimic a whale, but it also mimics a reptiles "head out of water" habits.
@Nemesis0300 shut the fuck up faggot its a fuckin manatee with a boat damaged tail.. you sad sack of shit its not a mythical unknown creature ..get a fuckin life wanker
@thedemonunderyourbed Who the fuck said mythical or unknown..? I'm not gonna argue with you though. " Never argue with a fool, lest onlookers not be able to tell the difference " .
@Nemesis0300 Well, as much as you may be a professional scientist, a word of advice: That kind of language and insulting dialogue doesn't lend you much credibility. Yes, the other guy is a troll who probably actually sleeps under his bed, but it's beneath us to stoop to his level. I agree with your assessment of the animal though. It does seem like a mix of a manatee and something else. It's clearly not a manatee with a damaged tail, though. It's the tail and that odd head that throw me off.
@Nemesis0300 You claim to have been studying ocean biology 'as a profession" since 1997? Your profile says that you are 26, but to have been "studying ocean biology since 1997" would mean that you started working in this field at the age of 13. This is on top of not knowing the difference between "breeds" on the one hand and "races" or "subspecies" on the other hand. A biologist, and especially a zoologist, would know the difference.
@Nemesis0300 Not to mention your oh so mature response to anyone who disagrees with you. Reptiles are more likely, as a class, to bask in the sun than are mammals. Have you never seen turtles lined up on a log in a pond to sun themselves? They'll even bask at the surface of the water if they can't find a log or rock to climb out onto. The same with crocodilians and many species of lizards.
@ajhowey275 Maturity is not based upon emotion; maturity is a word designed to separate men.
This isn't the person who made that comment's account any longer. My friend did study ocean stuff a lot, but he didn't do what he said he did. He was indeed foolish, but he had a good heart.
He actually passed on 3 months ago, so your quarrel is over.
@IrOcKz191 not according to the dickhead nemesis.. obvious to anyone else what it is..but this troll cant accept that its a manatee with a damaged tail...
@thedemonunderyourbed Once again, I - far more knowledgable than you - have come to the conclusion that the tail of a manatee has niether the width, nor diameter to reach such lengths. You can't take a small tail and damage it till the size becomes nearly double. Take a look at some pictures, there is no way an ocean manatee's tail could be damaged to make a forked tail. Please, understand that this is what I do for a living.
Haha, I said I was a Biologist, not an english teacher. And the sentence made perfect sense. Maybe you missed the dash marks. The sentence was, " I have come to the conclusion. The dash marks were added to show additional info. " I - far more knowledgeable than you - have come... Maybe I'm not a spelling teacher, but your skill at reading sucks. And you're still wrong about the creature..
P.S. Nice grammar yourself, bud. * can't fucking, comma after quoted phrase, capital at the begining.
@thedemonunderyourbed His sentence's grammar made fine sense. And technically the word, " knowledgable " has a textbook definition. Basically that means you just can't read - congrats.
Hay YANKEES...its a gentle sea cow..aka MANATEE..ie Manatee county..ie thousands of years old..Gentle vegetarians..constantly assaulted by props on idiots boats who don't observe the NO WAKE zones..Poor creatures are definitely endangered by MAN..
it swims to fast to be a manatee and to big to be a seal i agree with noahmagnuson it has to be a new species even though some manatees fins looked mutated after being hit by propellers the trident lokkin tail looks like it was to be formed that way it doesnt look damaged at all so this possibly is a new species
looks like a small steller's sea cow, but wrong place to be that even if they were still around. the fins/flippers look to be damaged on top of being different than a normal manatee. My guess is new species.
Manatees are fat and slow moving, and can't bend their tails like that, this thing was hunting for something on the bottom, and when it swam away you can see it's over 10 feet long and the head is too massive to be a seal.
@RedHandedRejects Manatee are nice,I fed them cold lettuce so many times. Why would anyone mess with them. When I grew up on Keybiscayne bay, we had hundreds of Seacows 'Matatee" They would swim under the dam at the old Parrot Jungle, to Snapper Creek, I only see a few here & there now, so sad.All have propmarks cut into their backs, the babys too

I am hoping that 2010 will bring a few mind-bending revelations-not theories and mysteries, but clear, definite, and measurable revelaions nad discoveries on earth and, maybe, beyond.
@rmsolympic1 Yes, like the Bible is true and the earth is only about 6000 years old. Too bad we can't go back to the truth in our classrooms. But Satan controls them....
yeah sure, whatever this thing is it is strange, and probably unknown to science until now, but it should not be labelled a monster, it looks like a sissy
Oh come ON. Just more "superstition tv" to attract the hee haw crowd -- like all those ghost shows on teevee nowadays. If those shows are right there's a ghost in every room basically, so odd we don't ALL see them.
Someone posted this is a dinosaur. Nuh uh. Dinosaurs were not sea creatures. You are thinking of a marine reptile. And that is not a reptile. It is some kind of pinniped, obviously.
Are people really that bored that they need to believe fantasy stories?
Somebody should just put together a serious, well-funded venture designed to clearly identify and document, if not to catch, this thing in its natural habitat. It should be filmed, with excellent and undebatable footage captured. AS is, the existing footage looks - to me, at least - better than any loch ness films to date.
That I do know. What gets me with this is the tail seems to be pretty regular in shape, and that's not so common with an injured manatee. The sections seem too uniform. Yeah, I know it's possible, and this thing certainly moves like a manatee, but.... Willing to consider other possibilities here.
thats what i said, then i went 2 a video of this with username sonofthedestroyer and it showed more stuff looked like a mososaurus r something like that u should check it out
watch the REAL footage of it on the guys website and you'll see what they are covering up, it's a dinosaur and that would hurt the evolutionists credibility and that's why it's being covered up.
how could it be a manatee, they dont swim that fast at all i believe what we see is a new species. I dont believe its a serpant, i just believe its a new specie of seal
did u not look at the video?? Ive seen whales(many kinds) looks NOTHING like that thing, and listen to the marine biologists... im not saying i believe in this shit though :)
The cranial shape leans far more towards a mammal of the order Carnivora than Cetacea. There have been no whales with forward facing eyes near the top of the skull, a broadened cheek area, as well as double nostrils at the tip of a snout. The head screams pinniped to me, but the flippers/fluke looks odd.

This isn't the person who made that comment's account any longer. My friend did study ocean stuff a lot, but he didn't do what he said he did. He was indeed foolish, but he had a good heart.
He actually passed on 3 months ago, so your quarrel is over.

@IrOcKz191 not according to the dickhead nemesis.. obvious to anyone else what it is..but this troll cant accept that its a manatee with a damaged tail...
thedemonunderyourbed 1 year ago
@thedemonunderyourbed Once again, I - far more knowledgable than you - have come to the conclusion that the tail of a manatee has niether the width, nor diameter to reach such lengths. You can't take a small tail and damage it till the size becomes nearly double. Take a look at some pictures, there is no way an ocean manatee's tail could be damaged to make a forked tail. Please, understand that this is what I do for a living.

@Nemesis0300 lol classic far more "knowledgeable" yet you cant fuckin spell it ..and " i far more" lol fuck off troll.
thedemonunderyourbed 1 year ago
Haha, I said I was a Biologist, not an english teacher. And the sentence made perfect sense. Maybe you missed the dash marks. The sentence was, " I have come to the conclusion. The dash marks were added to show additional info. " I - far more knowledgeable than you - have come... Maybe I'm not a spelling teacher, but your skill at reading sucks. And you're still wrong about the creature..
P.S. Nice grammar yourself, bud. * can't fucking, comma after quoted phrase, capital at the begining.
Nemesis0300 1 year ago
@thedemonunderyourbed His sentence's grammar made fine sense. And technically the word, " knowledgable " has a textbook definition. Basically that means you just can't read - congrats.

it swims to fast to be a manatee and to big to be a seal i agree with noahmagnuson it has to be a new species even though some manatees fins looked mutated after being hit by propellers the trident lokkin tail looks like it was to be formed that way it doesnt look damaged at all so this possibly is a new species

looks like a small steller's sea cow, but wrong place to be that even if they were still around. the fins/flippers look to be damaged on top of being different than a normal manatee. My guess is new species.

Manatees are fat and slow moving, and can't bend their tails like that, this thing was hunting for something on the bottom, and when it swam away you can see it's over 10 feet long and the head is too massive to be a seal.

@RedHandedRejects Manatee are nice,I fed them cold lettuce so many times. Why would anyone mess with them.

Oh come ON. Just more "superstition tv" to attract the hee haw crowd -- like all those ghost shows on teevee nowadays. If those shows are right there's a ghost in every room basically, so odd we don't ALL see them.
Someone posted this is a dinosaur. Nuh uh. Dinosaurs were not sea creatures. You are thinking of a marine reptile. And that is not a reptile. It is some kind of pinniped, obviously.
Are people really that bored that they need to believe fantasy stories?

Of course it is a pinniped. saying 'sea monster' doesn't imply marine reptile.

Somebody should just put together a serious, well-funded venture designed to clearly identify and document, if not to catch, this thing in its natural habitat. It should be filmed, with excellent and undebatable footage captured. AS is, the existing footage looks - to me, at least - better than any loch ness films to date.

The tail has THREE sections, not two - no known mammal has a tail like that. I think they either have some new pinniped, or a mutated one.

manatees have Fd up tails alot of the time cause boats runnin them over. iv pet one surfing with a jacked up tail like that...
DryKeg0326 2 years ago
That I do know. What gets me with this is the tail seems to be pretty regular in shape, and that's not so common with an injured manatee. The sections seem too uniform. Yeah, I know it's possible, and this thing certainly moves like a manatee, but.... Willing to consider other possibilities here.

This thing isn't 30 feet long, and in the video we are shown, it does move like a manatee.

the news report says 30 feet. and this video it does resemble the swimming of a manatee, but the other videos show differently.

The cranial shape leans far more towards a mammal of the order Carnivora than Cetacea. There have been no whales with forward facing eyes near the top of the skull, a broadened cheek area, as well as double nostrils at the tip of a snout. The head screams pinniped to me, but the flippers/fluke looks odd.
