  1. Dude it’s a kangaroo or a bloated opossum, it’s so obvious, the head just decomposed before the body

  2. Its the Lizard from cancelled spiderman 4 movie who died due to heartbreak of hearing his sequel wont be made

  3. Something bigger came through here, check out those foot prints😰 that creature laying there is fat from decomposing& full of water my guess is that creature was slim.

  4. If you think that looks weird, you should see a human body after it’s floated around for a few days. Horrendous!

  5. “Call on the Lord in the day of trouble,
    and He will deliver you”
               -Psalm 50: 15
