Taiwan Fishermen Catch Earthquake Fish

Posted by admin on May 12th, 2010 and filed under taiwan earthquake | 5 Comments »

The toothless, scaleless fish is known as the King of Herrings.

It weighed in at over 100 kilograms and measured five meters long.

[He Yuan-shing, Fishery Researcher]:
“Some fishermen believe the fish comes up when an earthquake happens, but that’s unproven.”

Proven or not, such a large fish lives at great depths and is rarely seen near the surface.

Earthquakes are common in Taiwan which lies on a seismically active stretch of the Pacific basin.

A similar catch of the same species was reported in October last year but was a mere three-and-a-half meters long.
