It was said to be covered in “sand-matted grey hair four to six inches long”. The chairman of the Zoology Department at the University of Auckland, J. E. Morton, was quoted as saying “You can rule out whales because of the hair, and you can rule out sea elephants and sea cows because of its size. I can’t think of anything it resembles”.
