I don’t know what they’re called, but they’re delicious with some lemon and tartar sauce.

The missing pieces have been sold as scallops.

Ask about the cookie cutters on an coastal trawler....

It likes like a giant manta, very badly decomposed. How many sea monster, decomposed carcass articles have seen seen lately? Not enough real news I guess.

We had an elephant looking like this wash up on the beach in Tel Aviv and it took a few days to figure out what it was.

Stingrays are fecking ugly.

Yeah. It’s because the internet wasn’t there. They are just exposed to some “suggestive” pictures and create all sorts of fun theories based on this non-existent evidence.

Ocean Sunfish? Weirdest fish I ever saw off the Maine coast. Big, fat, but short.

There are a LOT of those on my home world.

They’re still considered a delicacy because our scientists proved that every time you eat one, you shorten your life by 743 earth days.

But they’re worth it.

Actually, the first picture appears to me to be a raft which is upside down.

It does not look like a FISH or sea creature.

Best to just pack it with dynamite to get it off the beach.
