To me, it looks like the tail but with some scar tissue...

That is what I thought to at first then I got out the mag glass and that is the face you can see the detail quite well.It is something undiscovered.The head looks like a stegasorus head then you can see large scales comeing off the neck.I wish more people would look and comment.

i didnt look at in in great detail with a magnifying glass but just looking at the pic i would say that it looks like it could possibly be the tail of a big old common snapper. this seems to be the most logical identification considering its in canada and the size of the creature is hard to tell. a scarred crocodilian tail does look possible too, that came to mind when i saw the pic. hopefully more pictures will be available to get a better idea of what it is.

Well from looking at the pic I can't tell what it is. Maybe a tail who knows. I do know that I have personally captured quite a few from Michigan waterways. People let em loose alot. If you knew how many times cities have asked me to sign confidentiality papers concerning crocs, you would be surprised.
