Jake in his display at Marshes free museum in long beach Washington photo taken April 2009


Jake the alligator man is one of my favorite cryptids/museum things. He was found in Florida and then taken by a group in Long Beach Washington and put in museum. His backstory is that he loved to party. When he was found he gained a cult following and they even threw a party for him. I remember when I was little visiting the museum and walking up to the glass cage and thinking that must be what mermaids really look like. On his birthday the owners dress him up and give him alcoholic drinks.
