Muskieman Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 (edited) A friend, co-worker of mine is camped on Pike Lake north of Sturgeon Falls on HWY64 N....They heard a small splashing sound in the lake nearby her and her Mom walked to the dock and picked this up with the net... It died in a bucket and was shipped to Science North.. why there? I don't know but....that's where they took it.... They showed it off to cottagers and none of them knows what it is.... honestly neither do I . She described it to be about as big as a 600ml Pepsi Bottle or a Tall Boy Beer Can...maybe a little bigger, She said it has no legs but tentacles like a squid..eyes and mouth like a Catfish and about as hard as a Tadpole... apparently had what looked to be a translucent skin and weird colors....along with a lot of slime...she swears up and down that it's not a joke.. and she's a rather serious person. She should get information back from Science North sometime next week.. Have a look see ... whaddaya think it is?

Muskieman Posted August 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Turtle, with a bad birth defect? I'm very curious as well.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Caster Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 (edited) wow! It certainly has good camouflage as it looks just like a rock. If it is an unknown species I can see how it would be overlooked......If it is an unknown species that would be amazing!!!!
