Family spots ‘alien-like’ sea creatures on beach, they’re worth over Rs 47 lakh
The creatures are actually a delicacy.
They’re wonderful. They’re weird. They’re costly. And, now, images and videos of these creatures have created a buzz among people. There’s a possibility that they will amaze you too. But beware they may leave you with a strange aftertaste.
It all started with a post by Martyn Green. He took to Facebook to share information about the creatures called Gooseneck Barnacle. While out with his family, his wife spotted a log of wood covered with the animals and now their mesmerising videos and images have got people hooked.
The creatures are actually a delicacy worth £25 (over Rs 2,000) each, reports DailyMail. The total value of all the creatures could be as high as £50,000, more than Rs 47 lakh.
The images show the log covered in Gooseneck Barnacle. As for the videos, one of them shows a close look of the log. The other clip shows the tentacled-creatures getting back inside their white shells.
Take a look at the post:
Since being shared, people have shared all sorts of comments about the “alien-like” creatures. From calling them beautiful to commenting about how they are creeped out, people shared various responses.
“Amazing to watch, quite spooky,” wrote a Facebook user. “It’s weird but interesting,” expressed another. “Absolutely amazing but very scary,” said a third.
What do you think of the videos and the images? Did they amaze you or scare you or both?
