12 Mysterious Creatures Discovered After Tsunamis

With 95% of the world’s water left unexplored, it’s no surprise that natural disasters could cause curious creatures to rise from the depths.

12. Mussels & Starfish & Clams
A year after Japan’s tsunami, one of the first pieces of debris washed ashore the Oregon coast in June 2012. As the debris includes materials able to stay afloat for years and even decades, a new ecological process called mega-rafting introduces foreign flotsam with new, unsuspecting native networks.

11. The Two-Headed Porpoise
Near the murky waters of Hoek Van Holland, two frantic fishermen pulled up a mysterious porpoise off the coast of the Netherlands. The species of small-toothed whale was later confirmed as the first ever case of conjoined twin porpoises, marking the tenth known case of sea mammals consisting of whales and dolphins, also known as cetaceans.

10. The Faceless Fish
In the depths of the Tasman sea, somewhere between Tasmania and Australia, the faceless fish was discovered. This forty-centimeter-long creature with an alien-like body since has scientists baffled. As the mouth is situated on the underside of the fish, one cannot detect any form of eyes when looking at the animal head-on. In addition, no mouth, nose, or gills can be seen on the faceless beast. Rather, it looks like a long, submarine-shaped animal rendering the two rear-ends of a fish.

9. The Beluga hybrid
Another strange find in the wake of devastation was a strange and scary hybrid creature. In what resembles a cross between a fierce shark and bubbly-faced beluga whale, researchers deemed this creature one of the most unusual finds ever.

8. The Oarfish Oracle
Along one of Philippine's pristine beaches washed up several ten-foot-long sea serpents. In several cases, people have had sightings of oarfish prior to an earthquake and tsunami— such as those occurring in Japan, Chile, Haiti, and the Philippines.

7. The Shocked Sea Dragon
This one-eyed sea dragon remains a marine mystery— for when the petrified ocean animal washed up, it had a gaping mouth and protruding eye that cause speculators to assume the tsunami had shocked and terrified the unsuspecting creature. This baffling beast bore the similarity of a tiny dragon, and when turned over, only revealed the one, bulging eye. To this day scientists have not disclosed what this floating victim might be.

6. The Unidentified Blob
Soon after the devastating tsunami struck Japan, a giant boulder of blubber washed ashore a beach in Indonesia. In the days following its arrival, the beast began to decompose as spectators congregated around the creature— many were horrified of the massive animal which bore no resemblance to anything ever seen before.

5. The Strange Floating Object
According to a reporter telecasting live after the 2011 tsunami, a suspicious floating object began swimming at what he claims: “The speed of light.”

4. A Freak in the Street
When an unknown sea creature was found in the middle of a street following a tsunami, researchers wondered why no other fish or sea life accompanied the remains. The entity was too different to be a whale or shark, yet the freakish fish bore a slight resemblance to both. According to witnesses, investigators took the creature captive and never released any further detail on its identity.

3.The Mysterious Mutant Fish
Rumors spread that the aftermath of such destruction had created some mutant marine creatures as well. After a fisherman sourced a bulbous sea beast with no teeth and a bulging brain in comparison to its small body.

2. The Dogfish
The creature appeared prehistoric with almost tusk-like appendages which protruded from its gaping mouth. Researchers seized the sea creature and no word has surfaced since.

1. The unidentified flying creature
This flying-smoke creature portrayed characteristics never been seen, with its ability to rise up into the air like smoke before vanishing altogether. As water levels rose during the tsunami and victims rushed to grab their video recorders, the strange object appeared to be jumping from one rock to the other before making its ascent into the air.

waste of time, this video reveals absolutely nothing.

[christianlords]

the lack of actual photos of the creatures, is really annoying.

[thatoramafalo]

the voice and lack of actual photos shows this is all Fake

[wayupnorth]

Pictures that don’t go along with the story ruin this video.

[mickydeloach]

This guys voice is grating in my ears!

[e.]

Might want to show what you're talking about to keep people's interest

[Darknestok]

Ngl, the editing could have been done a lot better for some of the entries, y’know, so we can actually see what you’re talking about

[mnzfg]

The only weird creature in this vid is apparently the narrator.

[Scottt]

There are a lot of folks out there mixing images with a narrative that does not match. That is misleading.

[Darkfaderalert]

Wow thanks I learned about fish that I never saw before. And still never saw. Like wtf was the point of this if there are no pictures.

[circe]

at the end of the "conjoined porpoises" segment, at 3:40, during the word, "cetaceans", a photo of a whale shark is shown. that is a fish, not a cetacean.

[chefmichaelgriffin]

The video is so well put together but not having the picture of some of these finds really someone lazy did it to involved in production should do more research

[opvyggb]

I had a good English study listening the dramatic narration, thank you.

[anonymousanonymous]

I'm gonna make my own videos on alien existence and show absolutely zero evidence just like this

[Manu-Official]

Talks about one type of fish, puts pictures of every other fish.

[prathamjain]

Bruh you need to cahnge tune of your speaking or voice cover
Its irritating

[TruthisVeritas]

Could the narrator's voice be any more annoying?!

[redzzz]

Photos are a must have on a visual platform. SMH

[jeroid]

You pronounce 'nuclear' as "new-clear" not "new-cue-lar". You're not Harrison Ford in Indy 4...

[scottstokes]

If can’t show actual animal, don’t try to describe them,
