Oarfish
The world is filled with fascinating animals...on land, in the air, and under the sea. This A to Z challenge, hosted by the KICKS KIDS CLUB (where parents, teachers, and librarians find FREE resources supporting children's character development), will introduce kids to some of the more interesting creatures found in the deep blue ocean...
- They are the longest known species of bony fish, growing up to 56 feet in length.
- This rarely seen fish is thought to be the inspiration of the "sea serpent" tales from history.
- Japanese folklore believe if too many oarfish are seen in a short time then an earthquake is about to occur.
