Chimaera


I saw that, and just had to find out what it was, even though I had suspicions of a photoshop job.

The fish is real...a long nose chimaera pup. This and many equally weird fish were found in an expedition a couple of years ago. That pic is from that expedition.

Find them here:

There is no connection here with the tsunami. Tsunamis don't wash up stuff from the very deep ocean.
