The giant oarfish is basically a very large serpent that was discovered back in 1772. It is most commonly known as the world’s biggest bony fish, reaching an incredible length of up to 56 feet. Although this species is big, it is not considered dangerous and is rarely seen because it lives in the depths of the ocean. It can take up to a dozen people to simply hold a giant oarfish. Their diet consists mainly of plankton, shrimp, and other crustaceans. Unlike other fish, the giant oarfish lacks scales.
