** Take a look at the photo of the Huge "fish".**
A rare, massive fish known as the harbinger of doom has washed up on a California shore — for the second time in just three months.
The roughly 10-foot-long dead oarfish — rumored to be a sign of impending earthquakes — was found stretched out on the rocky shoreline of Grandview Beach in Encinitas by UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography last week.
It is the second in the institute’s possession — a dead 12-foot oarfish was found in August by kayakers coasting through La Jolla Cove, 20 miles south of Grandview Beach.
They are “strikingly large, odd-looking fish” with a long, silvery, ribbon-shaped body that can grow to be 30 feet long, according to the Ocean Conservatory.
Oarfish have long been rumored to precede natural disasters, particularly earthquakes — and the La Jolla Cove Doomsday Fish was even discovered just two days before a 4.6 earthquake rattled Los Angeles.
