Last week, a weird-looking sea creature, stretching to more than 23ft in length with no face was washed up on the Broad Haven South Beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales. The mysterious sea beast, weighing around four tonnes, remains unidentified by the experts and has been reported to the UK Cetacean Strandings Investigation Programme (CSIP).

Matthew Westfield, the CSIP stranding coordinator for Wales, identified a spine that was almost 23 feet long. Photographs surfaced online show the remains of a grey coloured husk with bone-like elements visible through the carcass. There are no identifiable heads or limbs on the beast which has started to decompose.

Such beautiful decomposition.



Sources tend to think it is a Basking Shark.

This is the sort of thing that keeps ichthyologists in business.

I find this statement more than a little fishy.

This is the sort of thing that creationists love - washed up deformed carcasses that they can proclaim to be a dinosaur or unicorn from the Bible, put it in their textbook, and then teach kids how it disproves evolution.

It couldn' t afford shoes...
