It was in July of 2008, that the carcass of a bloated, chimera-like animal washed ashore in Long Island. The ‘Montauk Monster‘ zoologists concluded, was probably a water-damaged raccoon, rather than some sort of unknown species.
Now, in 2012, it appears another monster has landed on the beach.
The Aflac Duck will quack again. The insurance company is replacing Gilber Godfried, who supplied the duck's voice for many years, but got fired when he ran afoul on his Twitter account. You can see the tweets that landed Godfried in hot water here.
The New York Times reports that Aflac is teaming up with Monster.com to audition new voices.
