Deep Sea Fish Washes Up on Oregon Coast - Alive: "Photos by Tiffany Boothe
(Seaside, Oregon) – “It just goes to show what cool things there are out there for beachcombers,” said Keith Chandler, manager of Seaside Aquarium. “You never know what you’ll find.”
For the second time in three months, the north Oregon coast was the recipient of a rare fish stranding event, where a live fish was rescued by staff at the Seaside Aquarium.
On Friday, a group of concerned citizens discovered something flopping around in the surf at Sunset Beach, just north of Seaside. The creature in question turned out to be a longnose skate, which was not only alive – but was an extraordinary find because this species usually lives well below the ocean surface."
