A giant oarfish, also known as an “earthquake” fish, was filmed by divers in shallow waters off the coast of Taiwan. The elongated fish is usually found 3,000 feet below water.
Diving instructor Wang Cheng-ru happened upon the fish off near New Taipei’s Ruifang District. Local legend and tradition say that the fish only rises from the deep before or after an earthquake — earning it the “doomsday fish” moniker. However, Cheng-ru believes that the fish was rising to the surface as a result of injury. In the footage, it has clear wounds in its body in the form of large holes.
“The wounds on the giant oarfish may have been the result of a cookiecutter shark [or cigar shark] attack,” Cheng-ru
