A
mysterious Loch-Ness-style monster has been found on the shores of
Vietnam with the world now wondering what it is and where it has been
dwelling.
Unidentified: It is believed the creature came from the sea
In
video footage, the carcass of the enormous creature from the deep is
seen being raised onto a large truck in front of hundreds of baffled
onlookers.
The video emerged from a Chinese news source earlier this week with little information to explain the surfaced giant behemoth.
In a global online investigation, posters and forum users have jumped to their own conclusions about the strange finding.
Some say it could be a relative of the infamous Loch Ness monster.
Others
have gone down the alien route and presumed it to be a large creature
from outer space similar to that in the 1990 film Tremors. But it seems
the most common belief is that it is a large… beached whale.
In
Vietnam, fishermen on the coasts are known to worship whales as the
animals are meant to bring luck and safety to them and their families.
During
the Cau Ngu funeral festival, for instance, the Vietnamese will sing
and dance while dragging a whale corpse to a nearby whale temple to bury
the bones in the cemetery.

In 2010, it was reported a 15-ton dead whale known as "Your Excellency" was given a royal send-off.
More than 30 people on 10 boats brought the whale ashore as it floated lifeless in the Cai Cung River.
As many as 10,000 people then attended the funeral to honour the sacred animal.
