Acording to the Siberian Times, the creature is a smelly, hairy, and at least three times larger than an average human.
Locals were left baffled by the “strange creature” and are appealing to scientists to name the “baffling behemoth”.
The enormous “smelly” body was discovered on the Pacific shore of the Kamchatka peninsula in the remote settlement of Pakhachi, according to a video.
The hideous chalk-colored beast, which is said to be larger than three men, looks to have a tail or long tentacle, as well as tube-like hair or fur.
It has “no definite head or eyes” and was too heavy for locals to move, according to The Siberian Times.
Speculation has ranged from a strange deep-time artifact to an extinct woolly mammoth thawed from a permafrost tomb by the warm summer.

Witness Svetlana Dyadenko said: “The most interesting thing to me is that the creature is covered with tubular fur.
“Could it be some ancient creature?
“I wish scientists could inspect this enigma that the ocean threw at us.”
After inspecting the “stinking” monster, she likened it to a vast “hairy octopus”.
She said: “It does look like fur, but it’s tubular, as if a lot of tiny pipes hang down the carcass.
“A really strange-looking creature.
“We googled it and couldn’t find anything resembling it.”

Svetlana reported that locals “could not dig or pull it out”.
She said: “You would need an excavator because part of it got completely covered with sand.”
One puzzled onlooker said: “I wonder if it came from a thawed glacier?”
Another woman replied: “It’s got to have been brought from the Arctic.”
One theory is that the beast could be a “globster”, a term coined in 1962 to describe a mysterious carcass washed up in Tasmania.

Globsters may resemble a massive octopus at first glance, while others may feature bones, tentacles, flippers, or even eyeballs, although they are not usually hairy.
Many are thought to be the remains of whales, sharks, or other sea creatures that have rotted and taken on odd shapes over time.
Sergei Kornev of Russia’s Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography stated today that he believes the Kamchatka monster is a whale..
He said: “Under the influence of the sea, time and various animals, from the smallest to the largest, a whale often takes on bizarre forms.”
Kornev added: “This is only a part of a whale, not a whole one.”
Another so-called “globster” caused a stir in Alaska recently when it washed up in St James Bay, stunning local fishermen.
And a sea creature with hundreds of squirming tentacles is baffling locals after washing up on a Vietnamese beach last month.
