evidence: Watch This Giant, Eerie, String-Like Sea Creature Hunt for Food in the Indian Ocean [...] In a video posted on Twitter by the Schmidt Ocean Institute Monday, a thin, silvery something floats in the open ocean in a strange spiral formation. Perhaps, it’s reminiscent of a swirling artistic masterpiece, or a giant, floating piece of silly string—but it’s actually an organism. [...] The creature was spotted by the Ningaloo Canyons Expedition, a team of researchers from institutes including the Western Australia Museum, the Schmidt Ocean Institute and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. On the research vessel Falkor, the scientists have been exploring this deep sea region using sonar and a remotely operated vehicle, named SuBastian, reports Ristos Georgiou for Newsweek.
