Great White Washes Up in Bahamas… Shark Steaks For Everyone!

Earlier in the week, reports were heard of a white shark, possibly a Great White, washing ashore along the western coast of Grand Bahama. Some of the staff of UNEXSO went to take a look. They were shocked to see that some of the residents in the area were chopping the shark up to take home and eat. Warnings have since come from the Dept of Health not to eat the meat as it has not yet been determined what killed the shark.
Oh, and if you’re planning a trip to Atlantis… well… good luck with that.

How To Make “Rotten Shark”

Worried that the uric acid in the shark you just caught might make it unsuitable for consumption? Try “rotten shark” — putrefied, buried, dried shark jerky, an Icelandic “delicacy!”
Take one large shark, gut and discard the innards, the cartilage and the head. Cut flesh into large pieces.Wash in running water to get all slime and blood off. Dig a large hole in coarse gravel, preferably down by the sea and far from the nearest inhabited house – this is to make sure the smell doesn’t bother anybody. Put in the shark pieces, and press them well together. It’s best to do this when the weather is fairly warm (but not hot), as it hastens the curing process. Cover with more gravel and put heavy rocks on top to press down. Leave for 6-7 weeks (in summer) to 2-3 months (in winter). During this time, fluid will drain from the shark flesh, and putrefication will set in.
Slice off the brown crust, cut the whitish flesh into small pieces and serve, preferably with a shot of ice-cold brennivÃn.

Leg Found on Beach!

Two kids playing on the sandy beaches of South Padre Island made a strange discovery on Sunday… a human leg!
According to the cops, the left leg and foot appear to belong to a male and looked like it had been in the water for a long time… several shellfish had already made themselves at home on the foot.
The body part was transported to Mission, to be properly identified by investigators.

Keep That Thing Far, Far Away From Me

A bizarre fish washed up on the Sonoma County coast. The fish was three feet long, with an extended mouth, long, curved teeth like a barracuda and a sail like a marlin. The Department of Fish and Game I.D.’d it as a long-nose lancetfish.
The lancetfish usually lives in deep water… around 6,000 feet deep and they can grow up to six feet long. They have two fangs, like a prehistoric sabertooth tiger. They eat whatever they can find.
Not something I’d like to meet up with…

Plug Your Nose!

Volusia County Health Department urged swimmers Thursday not to swim in freshwater lakes and ponds. A deadly microscopic critter known as Naegleria fowleri has come out to play due to warm water temperatures and ew, these guys swim up your nose and attack your brain.
So in addition to avoiding the beaches of Volusia County, you should also stay away from lakes, ponds or any stagnant fresh water… or at the very least, wear your nose clips!
