    "Bermuda Bob" Discovered Off the Coast of Chile..

    SANTIAGO, Chile (July 3) - Chileans who found a huge blob of flesh washed up on a remote Pacific beach said on Thursday they would send samples of the specimen to foreign scientists to sort out if it is a rare giant octopus or part of a whale carcass.

    Scientists have been boggled by the 40-foot-long mass of gray, gelatinous flesh that was first spotted over a week ago near Puerto Montt, about 600 miles south of the capital, Santiago.

    The specimen, which remains on the beach, looks like a huge lumpy piece of slippery rubber in the shape of a squashed elephant.

    Whale conservationists went to see it last Sunday, thinking it was a beached whale, but quickly concluded it was an invertebrate, appealing to international experts for help.

    Since then, theories have emerged of a rare giant octopus that is feared by fishermen in some parts as the "Bermuda Blob," while skeptics say it may be a piece of whale blubber.

    I don't think cryptozoologists will even be remotely interested now.
    Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. -Douglas Adams
