This month’s theme is Oarfish!

Film: Go Wild: Giant Sea Serpent, Meet the Myth

The Giant Oarfish, the largest bony fish in the world, was known only by rare examples that died by stranding, as well as one sole fossil. Its extraordinary dimensions, as long as 15 meters, and shape in the form of a silver ribbon, inspired the myth of the sea serpent.

Book: How We Came to Be: Surprising Sea Creatures by Sami Bayly

Come with us on a deep dive through the ocean zones. Meet some of the most unusual creatures from the sea and hear their stories about how they have changed over millions of years to survive in the inky ocean depths.
