This creature was found by Russian soldiers on Sakhalin shoreline. Sakhalin area is situated near to Japan, its the most eastern part of Russia, almost 5000 miles to East from Moscow (Russia is huge). People dont know who is it. According to the bones and teeth - it is not a fish. According to its skeleton - its not a crocodile or alligator. It has a skin with hair or fur. It has been said that it was taken by Russian special services for in-depth studies, and we are lucky that people who encountered it first made those photos before it was brought away.

Pelosi is technically alive. That said, I'd rather share an elevator with Mr. Rotting Whale Carcass.

If not for the "hair or fur" my guess would be an Orca.

The teeth are all wrong for a whale. Whales have several layers of very sharp teeth to filter krill and shrimp.
They're all wrong for a baleen whale which is what you describe; there are two main types of whales, the baleen and toothed whales. Beluga are toothed whales, and they don't filter krill and shrimp.
To: DBrow
I was thinking of beluga whales too, as much as I don't like to think of one beaching. Probably the "hair" is just a lot of matted up seaweed.

The teeth look reptillian.
The creature looks like a putrified crocidile.
The hair looks like moss.
Could this just be a marine reptile with a collection of organic detritis wash up over it?

I think you are correct. And that white triangular bony structure below the head, could it be a flipper?
To: Marius3188; pcottraux
Well, if it were found in the ocean, it would immediately be branded "basking shark". ;')
If it were found dead, stuck in a lock in Ireland, it would be called a "horse eel". ;')

Probably thawed out of something and washed ashore. Like the Mammoths they find occasionally

Never mind, I just looked at the photos. Just shot down my hopes on it being a Mermaid. But as a sailor who has been out to sea for the longest time, would you still hit it? :-)
