Scientists discover new giant fish species off Japan's coast
There is a great variety of sea life swimming in Earth's oceans, but according to the National Ocean Service, more than 90% of the species living in them are not yet classified. So when scientists stumbled onto a toothy deep-sea "top predator" off Japan's coast, they could not believe a fish of that size was swimming around the deep blue. Lucy Craft has more.

Who remembers that statistic that by 2050, all the fish in the ocean would be gone? How would that be possible if we haven't discovered 90% of all fish in the ocean?!

That is no giant, especially for an ocean fish. Its also been seen before and has been named. Of course most people know, we know more about the moon that what in our oceans its been that since the telescope was invented.

Of that remaining 90%, only about 1% of the uncharacterized species are likely to be "large". This is an amazing find.

You guys know there’s a big quake coming right? Anniversary of the 9.0 is next month and in 2011 one month before the quake they too found a big oarfish the weeks leading up to it. History repeats and this time it’s going to be way larger, stronger and longer. More powerful.

How can animals go extinct if they evolve 😬 someone is lying here.
Captain Obvious!!!12 days ago
@wickedcabinboy so you can’t explain it? Can you explain why evolution was invented to promote racism, and even had a black boy in a cage in the USA to show people who we “evolved” from. I’m sure your brand of wisdom can explain.
wickedcabinboy12 days ago
@Captain Obvious!!! - your sarcasm is noted. I suspect your biology lessons came from your pastor. Were you interested in anything more than a pointless argument you wouldn't be attempting to learn biology from strangers in a USlikes comment section. It is beyond my power to fix your brand of stupid.
Captain Obvious!!!12 days ago
@wickedcabinboy you know, tell me. How can a fish evolve to a land animal? Do the gills go out first? Or fins?
wickedcabinboy12 days ago
@Captain Obvious!!! - It would seem you're unfamiliar with basic evolutionary biology.
Captain Obvious!!!12 days ago
@wickedcabinboy who decides that? If an animal has half leg and half wing? How can it survive? Or do animals evolve over night?
