    What an odd looking thing, but only about a foot long by the scale there. Very interesting. Wouldn't look out of place in the sea in modern times really.

    Nothing is weird enough that it would look out of place in modern seas :D

    That last one bears more than a passing resemblance to my ex when she was on her nagging spree. (Somewhere around 365 days of the year)

    I wonder what the flexible looking tail was for.

    PS: Adam, what is that first fish in your follow on post?

    edit: Apparently its a chimaera/ Never seen one quite like that before.
