Original Note:
This is a deep sea oarfish, also sometimes colloquially known as a ‘doomsday fish’. It is only a legend that seeing an oarfish is an omen of imminent disaster. They are thought to ascend to shallower water when diseased or dying. https://oceanconservancy.org/blog/2023/11/08/oarfish-known-doomsday-fish/
