Interesting, to say the least. It's not a squid or pinniped for sure, even a landlocked simpleton like myself can tell that. You have to love some of the comments though. I like the one about the DFO taking so long to get there and them being only 20 minutes away. That seems like the norm. /blink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' />

If they can do some sort of genetic test on it, it might be easier to find out what it's predators could be. Also depending on how long the thing had been dead and exposed to the elements could distort it's looks. It looks like it's really cold, so that would probably rule out sharks, could killer whales be involved? Not sure if orcas can handle cold water or not. Most curious indeed. You know, the headline reads "another" and I'm curious as to how many HAVE been found. Is it seasonal? Are they finding these things only in the winter?

Offlinelooks sort of like a mammal.
OfflineI'm going to have to go with a headless member of the Skate family on this.
Maybe an oarfish. I've never seen anything but pictures of them and they can
get even bigger than what is pictured. After decomposition and and a few weeks
with no ciculatory system, and a ride in briny water, nothing looks anything like it
did when it was alive. Just remember even Humpbacks attacked harpoon boats….
……….so biting this litte morsel in half wouldn't slow them or an Orca down much!
All they have to feel is threatened or hungry and CHOMP McRib! /laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Offlineit would be cool if people would stretch out the thing, i mean does it really stink that much?
OfflineI live in the Pacific Northwet (west) …
Out on the Pacific Ocean Beaches you can see some "strange" creatures washed up here and there … and all of them were common .. but were 'strange' because of time .. injuries .. bite marks that healed but that part of the body never 'came back' but they survived long enough to heal and so on…..
It will be fun to see what the answer is .. once and a very great while, Mom Nature throws a curve ball.
