The Fishes Are Believed To Come Near The Beach
Apparently, the fish comes to the surface and beach when there is an earthquake that would be nearing. Apart from the scientific theories supporting the lore, these bottom-dwelling fishes are believed to be susceptible to movements in seismic fault lines. Due to these changes they tend to act uncharacteristically before an earthquake.
The Social Media Went Berserk
The social media users went beserk in Japan after the fish was spotted and the locals believe that the death of the fish foretells that a disaster is near.
One Twitter user wrote: "This is no doubt evidence of a precursor to an earthquake, and if it is in the Nankai Trough, an area susceptible to tectonic plate movements, it might be a huge quake."

One Possible Explanation For The Fishes To Be Seen Is...
Scientists assume that one possible explanation for the deep-sea fish to be seen could be due to the subtle changes in the Earth's crust at the bottom of the sea before an earthquake. This movement might cause the water current to stir and push creatures at the bottom to the surface.
What do you think could be the reason for the sighting of this fish?
