MERMAID or SEA MONSTER?
While exploring desolate areas of Fort Desoto Beach at the
southern end of St. Petersburg, here in Florida, I came upon a
rather startling discovery. Before me lay what at first
appeared to be a very large strange fish. Shocked and amazed,
I realized I had found another mermaid or sea monster.
I went back to my car to get my camera.
My hands were shaking as I tried to calm down to take these
photos. This Mermaid or Sea monster, you be the judge, is a
few inches shy of being 5 feet long. Laying on a fresh natural
bed of seaweed, this creature of the sea looks out as if still
alive. What killed this mystery from the depths?
Recently in the news there was talk of
another outbreak of Red Tide. Had this mermaid fallen ill from
this mysterious dreaded disease from the sea?
Looking over her gracefull body, I realized what a special
creature she must had been in life. Was she the missing link
between primates and fish? In time, what would evolution had
shaped this creature to be?
I sat there thinking for awhile and realized I must get
this mermaid back home. I could always ponder later.
The winner to this auction will recieve the sea creature
shown in the photos below. The photos have not been altered or
retouched nor are they result of photo shop. The entire body
has been determined to be covered in once living fish skin
with scales. I have drilled a small hole in the back of the
head so that it can be hung up on a wall for display.
