Lesson82 Monster or fish?
Fishermen andsailors sometimes claim to have seen monsters in the sea. Though people haveoften laughed at stories told by seamen, it is now known that many of these'monsters' which have at times been sighted are simply strange fish.Occasionally, unusual creatures are washed to the shore, but they are rarelycaught out at sea. Some time ago, however, a peculiar fish was caught nearMadagascar. A small fishing-boat was carried miles out to sea by the powerfulfish as it pulled on the line. Realizing that this was no ordinary fish, thefisherman made every effort not to damage it
in any way. Whenit was eventually brought to shore, it was found to be over thirteen feet long.It had a head like a horse, big blue eyes, shining silver skin, and a brightred tail, The fish, which has since been sent to a museum where it is beingexamined by a scientist, is called an oarfish. Such creatures have rarely beenseen alive by man as they live at a depth of six hundred feet.
