Strange Sea Creatures

   

Hi All,

I thought you guys might be intrested to see these:

As everyone knows, the tsunami in Southeast Asia was devastating both in the loss of life and economically to the region.

However now that the clean up is underway in the region, deep sea creatures that live too deep to be studied are being found scattered throughout the wreckage. These creatures were washed up on shore when the waves hit.

Amazing what lives so far below the surface isn't it?

Thanks

I'm not sure if the pictures of fish supposedly washed up by the tsunami that you reported in the newsletter are the same ones I have been getting, but most of the ones floating around are actually from the NORFANZ expedition, http://www.oceans.gov.au/norfanz/. It is a fascinating web site regardless. I don't know why the internet hoaxsters need to attribute this stuff to the tsunami, I guess it is just sport for them.

Regards,
