why is it that whenever someone seems to find an odd creature now-a-days their first instinct is beat it to death with the nearest blunt object?

I've said it before and I'll say it again...there is a very obvious reason. It's because it's easier to fake a corpse than a living animal.
Take, for example, the Montauk Monster. You can kill ANYTHING, and then mutilate the hell out of it. You can then give someone the mutilated corpse and say "look, it's a monster!" And you'll be called out on your BS EVENTUALLY, but first you'll get your 15 minutes of fame.
Meanwhile, how hard would it be to take a LIVE animal, and then mutilate it so much that it resembles a monster, and then try to pass THAT live animal off as a bona fide monster? That's a LOT harder. Because if you're going to mutilate an animal to the extent that people can't recognize it, then in all odds you would have already killed it. And if you DO manage to keep it alive through such drastic mutilation, you will then be crucified for doing that to an animal, as soon as people find out that the animal is a fake (which they will).
You want to fake an animal, you provide a corpse. That's it. That's why ALL of these cases involve either a corpse which is later found to be fake as hell, or pictures/video of an animal with the convenience of NO PHYSICAL EVIDENCE being provided.
Any time someone finds a miraculous or unimaginable animal, and then claims to have killed it when they saw it, that should immediately set off your hoax alarm. Killing the animal is usually the first sign that they are trying to make a fool out of you before they submit a fake corpse.
And in this case, an additional sign is that THEY DID NOT EVEN BOTHER TO SUBMIT A CORPSE.
Suppose their story is true, and they DID see an animal like this before killing it. Okay. So WHY didn't they pick up the dead animal, throw it into the trunk of their car, and then contact every scientist in a 100 mile radius?
What, they just took pictures and then left the animal there? REALLY?!
If so, then WHERE IS THE ANIMAL? Why didn't SOMEONE ELSE pass by this thing, say to themselves "what the ****"?, and then put that animal into their trunk and submit it to science?
Sure they killed it and left it there, but WHERE DID THE EVIDENCE GO? I mean, can I kill a MAN, and leave his corpse there, only for all of the evidence of that man's death to just DISAPPEAR? Can I beat a freaking SQUIRREL to death, only for all of the evidence to just disappear? You leave a dead animal lying on the ground, you're leaving PHYSICAL EVIDENCE. Yet, these people allegedly killed the most ****ed up looking animal ever seen, left its entire corpse lying around intact, and supposedly ALL OF THE DAMN PHYSICAL EVIDENCE magically disappeared as soon as they walked away from the scene?
The thing about making hoaxes is that you have to inject enough realism into the story to make people believe in the parts that are utterly moronic. But THIS story is just moronic all the way through, and I actually have pity for anyone who considers this to be possible for even one second.
