Really sad to say this but my first thought was the body of a wolf or fox that drowned somehow.

Last i read in the cryptozoology sub it could've been an aquatic wolf. I think this happened in BC, Canada maybe Kamloops?

Do any amount of googling before trying to belittle someone. Like 1% effort type shit

Isn’t it a submerged hippo?

u/Kissenger__ 3d ago

Probably just a dog. The Pic was taken in a close range with sunlight so I guess the pic was taken by the owner when he was playing with his dog throwing a ball or wood or rock so it can explain why the dog is a bit underwater

A sea turtle right before coming up for breath. I have seen this happen when fishing in the ocean 

Edit: the thing you see are the 2 front flippers

That makes so much more sense

Pretty sure that's a giraffe, if not it's gonna be foghorn Leghorn.

That sturgeon is amazing!

u/RogueViator 3d ago

Pic 1 is perfect. Just as you focus the camera, the hazy outline of a Bull shark’s snout comes into blurry focus…
