This Is Just a Huge Fish Found Near the Brooklyn Bridge, No Big Deal

Mysteries of the sea.

This just might interest you, New York. The creature you see above washed up from the East River, right near the Brooklyn Bridge, and the bastard is huge. Greg Boyd sent the image to Gothamist this morning, explaining his encounter with the sea monster yesterday evening:

None

Boyd also said that hundreds of people probably saw the massive fish last night. Let them all tell the tale of its legend. Here's the thing: It's probably not a sea monster. Gothamist reached out to AMNH's Ichthyology Department to figure out exactly what it is, and popular belief is that it's a sturgeon.

That's a relief. At least New York doesn't have to worry about one of these—for now.
