Four Mile Globster
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Four Mile Globster was an unidentified mass that washed ashore in Four Mile Beach, Tasmania, in 1997. The carcass was 15 feet long, 6 feet wide, and was estimated to weigh 4 tons. It was described as having paddle-shaped flippers, strands of white hair, and six fleshy lobes along its sides. Although no samples of the mass were taken, recent analysis of other globsters suggests that the Four Mile Globster was the partial remains of a decomposing cetacean.
