It's amazing to see the way they swim! You'd think that from the shape of their body they might undulate it like a snake, but nope, it's the beautiful dorsal fin!
I know right, they swim like my knife fish. It always makes me imagine the Jetsons hover car sounds when they move around.
This is the most respectful to facts presentation of the Oarfish I have seen online. Thank you. I have two Oarfish rescue videos to contribute to the knowledge of the Oarfish, and another called, "How to Rescue an Oarfish," a video to assist people who want to save a beached Oarfish without doing harm. Thank you for your video! There are a lot that are just spreading mythology. This is a fish that could use some attention, from the Scientific community. We are starting a database to record beachings in our bay. Thank you.
Your films are fabulous. They are bite sized bedtime watching. Informative, fascinating, beautiful and relaxing 😊
What a beautiful fish. So special.
Plus in Sweden they are known as Herring-Kings due to the belief that they could lead groups of herrings away like a king leading his army.
I would like to know if the glow on oarfish is caused by bioluminescence or if its a reflection of their silver skin
since they're extremely uncommon sightings and the most times we've seen them are almost at the surface of the ocean, where they're more often found, they're probably just iridescent and reflective skin.
if they were more bioluminescent, they'd probably be easier to spot in dark and dim waters
Thanks to animal crossing, i get this on my fee and find interesting facts, thank you
Lol same
The Oarfish is the Source of Sea Serpent Sightings
Very interesting. Thanks for posting. 😁👍🏻
These beasts are so soothing
That's a ghost leviathan...
A fact:
Oarfish are the inspiration for the infamous Reaper Leviathan, known for making Subnautica players shart their pants due to the sudden appearance.
Beautiful gentle fish 💖💖💖
The serpent with the guys was taken in San Diego in 1996 and it is not a oarfish. In our culture it is the Laotian dragon (pha yha nak)
What is your culture, San Diego?
By "culture" I'm assuming you mean the Bloods or the Crypts?
Professor Inkling: Let's see. Red spikes, long tail, silvery skin... Of course! Now I know what it is. It's an oarfish.
Impresionante está especie marina, y ha sido inspiración para muchas leyendas, muy buen documental, like y un saludo

California has had earthquakes in resend days and an oarfish had showed up dead off of the San Diego beach. Could that be the more earthquakes coming?

Well, there's the little-known Adorable Cutefish, but confirmed sightings are quite rare.
