A beach day in Cabo took an unexpected turn when two sisters spotted something strange flashing in the distance. At first they thought it couldn’t be real.
As they got closer, they realized the creatures struggling in the shallow water were oarfish, a rare deep-sea species that almost never appears near the surface. One of the sisters quickly jumped in to help, working with people on the beach to push the fish back toward deeper water.
But the moment got even stranger. Just as they finished helping the first one, they spotted another oarfish near the shore. Seeing even one is extremely rare. Seeing two in the same place is almost unheard of.
Afterward, they learned there have only been a handful of sightings along that coastline over the past few hundred years. While some people call them “doomsday fish,” scientists say there’s no evidence they’re linked to earthquakes or tsunamis.
