Oarfish washed ashore

Oarfish washed ashore
In a bizarre incident in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, an oarfish, was washed ashore on bustling Medano Beach, which features a view of the end of the Baja California peninsula.

Oarfish are deep-water denizens that are rarely seen. But because of their long, slender appearance, and their bright-orange dorsal fins and manes, they helped spawn myths of sea serpents and sea monsters among ancient mariners.
