Whilst an nice collection of deep sea animals they are a collection from several deep sea websites.
Yes, it was me that kicked the cat this morning to see how far it would go . . .
There was a minute chance some of them came via the earthquake. however, thats quite slight
Still, interesting pictures regardless of the truth behind them!
hmmmmmm, uncanny resemblance to the slimy floor sucker himself.....

The others look pretty tasty, but this one,was it harpooned by a Japanese whaler? or would that be wishful thinking?

Apparently the wave base runs along the sea floor, its a massive wave, but just underwater, but as it approaches a beach it rears up and then actually looks like a 'wave'.
Hence little effect in deep sea, but devestating on a shore line.

Isn't this one of those Angler fish thingys?? I thought that they were deep sea fish? They would have been unaffected by the Tsunami as they live in the deep trenches??
And they can't live in shallow water because they would have serious survival problems, they are designed for very high water pressure depths only.
Maybe sucked up from from a deep bit of ocean.

No more, or less suprising, than say "Harry"
In full Hapsburg national costume, parading about as
royal familly youth really, having been dredged up from the depths.
Anyway

The fourth one down looks like it could have come "from the bottom of a dark Scottish Lake"!Gassing Station | The Pie & Piston Archive | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
