420 Million year old fish keeps being captured alive...

Huge 420-million-year-old fish species rediscovered in Indian Ocean

A humongous "fossil fish" with origins that can be traced back 420 million years has resurfaced in the West Indian Ocean off the coast of Madagascar.

The 6.5-feet, up to 198-pound coelacanth (Latimeria chalumnae) was believed to have gone extinct at least a century ago. However, a recent study published in the SA Journal of Science revealed that as of May 2020 as many as 334 coelacanth captures had been documented.

Does this put a flaw in carbon dating of fossils, or lead to a loch ness monster realizm? Thoughts?

I don't believe in the Loch Ness monster, but I heard about the fish being found alive and that's pretty cool. :cool:

Yeah I'm skeptic too, but they used to think giant squid were sailor myths until they started seeing suction marks on whales and observed some deep underwater:

Is Sasquatch in there, cause I grew up on an Indian reservation with lots of sightings of Sasquatch.

Not in that particular episode no, but yeah I know all about him.

What I don't understand is how they determined something in such a large, and largely unexplored body of water as the ocean was extinct to begin with?

Sure, it looks prehistoric, but they needed a bit more than that to go on.

I'm sure they have carbon dated it to 420 million years old. But yeah extinct?

420 million year old fish? I don't think so.

I know that a 420 million-year old fish story is part of the enemy's deception of the world spoke of in scripture. Evolution says that God doesn't exist.
