YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS THING! A Newfoundland Fisherman Hauls Up This Rare Creature
The stuff of nightmares!
A marine biologist with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans in Newfoundland and Labrador said its a LONG NOSE CHIMAERAS!?
Chimaeras are cousins to sharks and skates.
“Chimaera” is a Greek word meaning mythical monster. She said it’s aptly named, because it does appear to be some sort of cross between a bird and a dinosaur.
It’s a good thing it had died before the fisherman hauled it onto his boat.
“It does have a long, sharp spine … and that could inflict a bad injury if the animal was alive and flailing, thrashing about.”
