Summary: A 49 foot sea creature washed up on the side of Indonesia, discovered last Tuesday. When it was first found, the giant animal was thought to be a squid, but upon further investigation, experts believe they can identify it as a baleen whale. Since giant squids are invertebrates, it was easily dismissed as scientists saw the bones protruding from the creature. There are also clear ridges along the body, which as similar to that of a baleen whale. They are continuing to observe the animal until they can make a more clear conclusion about it.
Analysis: This article was written on May 5, 2017, by Hilary Hanson, to inform the readers about the discoveries made in Indonesia. I first heard about the "sea monster" on twitter, and immediately went to figure out more details. The animal is absolutely terrifying itself, and the lack of knowledge we have on the creature is ever scarier. I think it will be really interesting to see what discoveries are made in the next few weeks.
Synthesis: Discoveries are being made every day about the ocean and what it holds. Scientists have recently discovered new creatures that we had no idea existed.

The ocean is so mysterious and it's interesting to see what lies beneath. This is another example of what we still have to learn about.
ReplyDeleteI saw a video about this creator that washed up. It is crazy what we don't know and haven't explored.
