    Rare paddlefish, mythical harbinger of doom, found in California

    A dead belted fish, considered a mythical harbinger of natural disasters, has been found on the coast of California. This is only the second case in three months and the 21st since 1901.

    It is believed that the rare belted fish can bring huge natural disasters. It appeared for the second time in three months on the coasts of the US state of California.

    Writes UNN with reference to NBC news.

    A long, ribbon-like strapfish, rarely seen and considered a harbinger of disaster, washed up on the shores of California for the second time this year.

    The crested herring (Regalecus glesne) or belt fish is a semi-deepwater fish found in warm to moderately warm waters of the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans. Its physical characteristics and undulating swimming style have led to speculation that this fish species may be the source of many sightings of the so-called “sea kite”.

    According to the Scripps Institution, the belt fish is an incredibly rare creature.

    Since 1901, only 21 belted fish have been recorded on the shores of California.

    There is a popular belief that has become known over the years, especially widespread in Japan and other coastal cultures, that links the appearance of a particular fish to natural disasters such as tsunamis and earthquakes.
