TL;DR Summary

Divers off the coast of Taiwan discovered a giant oarfish, a deep-sea species rarely seen near the surface. Oarfish are often associated with impending natural disasters in Japanese folklore, but experts dismiss this belief, stating that there is no scientific evidence to support it. The oarfish, measuring over six feet long, was found with bite marks. These creatures can grow up to 50 feet long and are believed to be responsible for sea serpent legends throughout history.
