The beaches of Australia are considered very beautiful. In this, Coogee Beach (Coogee Beach, Pearth) of Perth City is also very special. Local people go for a walk on this beach every morning and evening. When the sea water reaches the shore, a wonderful sight is visible. But it is not necessary that every day be this beautiful. Recently, something similar happened on this beach, seeing which an atmosphere of panic was created among the people walking there and there was shouting. Actually, the people walking saw a red-red thing under the sand, which looked exactly like an alien. People who were walking fearlessly started screaming in fear. Some people also captured his photographs. People were surprised as to what this creature was, because half of its body was like a shark and the other half was like a ray.
This rare alien-like sight was seen on Coogee Beach in Australia last week. Social media users and local people were shocked to see this strange scene. It must have died some time before it washed up on the beach, due to which it washed up on the shore. Due to the waves, some parts of its body got stuck in the sand. Those who saw it for the first time got scared and started wondering what kind of evil this was. But later some people called it an alien. Its pictures were also shared on Facebook, after seeing which the experts expressed their views. Speaking to Yahoo News Australia, Leo Guida of Australian Marine Conservation Society told about this strange animal that this species has been identified as bottlenose wedgefish or white-spotted guitarfish.
He further said that the reason for not knowing much about this fish is probably that it is highly endangered. Their numbers are less, but these fish thrive only in the sea waters of Australia. Australia is the global ‘lifesaver’ for this species. While they are not endangered in Australian waters, they are critically endangered globally, including in Southeast Asia. Their existence is also under threat. The fish looked completely red in the pictures, which shocked many people. Some people thought it looked like blood, while others compared it to aliens because of its red appearance. But scientists actually revealed that the red color was due to injury. Although this animal looks like a shark and a ray, it is actually neither.
Let us tell you that bottlenose wedgefish are part of the Rhinidae family, which belong to a group of cartilaginous fish called elasmobranchs. This group includes both sharks and rays. Because of this, their physical structure is also similar to that of fish and rays. However, their living conditions are gradually changing, due to which they are in extreme danger. Generally, these are rarely seen in front of the eyes, due to which people do not know much about them. When pictures of this creature went viral on social media, people were shocked and even scared. But the expert gave accurate information about this creature.
