Discovery of the Day: Man Snaps Photo of Totally Real 'Jersey Devil'
This photo is definitely real.
Don't even entertain the thought that someone put fake wings on a goat and threw it in the air to take this picture. That's crazy. That definitely did not happen.
What definitely did happen is Dave Black of Little Egg Harbor Township managed to snap a picture of the elusive Jersey Devil, a creature that has haunted the New Jersey Pinelands for 200 years.
The legend of the Jersey Devil states that a woman in the early part of the 18th Century was pregnant with her 13th child. She joked that the devil could take this one—and he did. That child grew into the Jersey Devil.
The History Channel tweeted this out just a couple days ago.
The Jersey Devil legend spawned a pro sports team--the New Jersey Devils. #TrueMonsters
