Coelacanth
Coelacanth are an ancient order of fish believed to have gone extinct at the end of the Cretaceous period some 65-plus million years ago. That was until 1938, when one was miraculously discovered off the east coast of South Africa near the mouth of the Chalumna River. Closely related to lungfishes and tetrapods, coelacanths are among the oldest living jawed fishes known to exist. They can live as long as 100 years and swim at depths of 90 to 100 meters.

I think the discovery of animals thought to be extinct, is awesome. That is all.
This page is not for a creation versus evolution debate.
Hi, my name is...well...(no disrespect), but none of your business, and well I just want to say that fish is freaking UGLY!!! : ). also WHY?!?! why must we bring all this arguing into a comment dialog over an ugly freaking fish. I mean I personally am a Christian but STILL think that it is totally unnessasary to bring such a touchy subject when all you really have to do is leave a comment on what you think about the PICTURE of the FREAKIN' FISH!!!!! .....that's all I have to say, and thank you :....

Ancient Fossils That Evolutionists Don't Want You To See
Why, if species have descended from other species by fine gradations, do we not everywhere see innumerable transitional forms? Why is not all nature in confusion,.... More
I don't understand why all of a sudden someone would start attacking a religion and stating their beliefs and morals about a religion they have no clue about. This article is just about a big fish still alive or if its a joke. This has nothing to do with God. Even though MY GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD! I feel that if you have nothing good to say you should keep it to yourself and not make a mockery or him! ASHAME on you.. I wonder who made you so cold hearted....
the big bang is a big hoax just like the global warming crap
Doesn't ANYONE know ANYTHING here? LMAO jesus was an ALIEN! (no "capitol" jay here is on purpose) I mean, c'mon man! Fishes into loaves of bread? Sounds like a "replicator" to me (like in Star Trek?) and why did he (jesus) HAVE to turn FISH into bread!? If they were starving (the people, and presumably jesus too lol) why didn't they just EAT THE FISH?!!! LMAO
JEsus didnt turn fish into bread, he duplicated fish and bread that someone brought to him. GOD IS GREAT!!
NOT IMPORTANT
it's "Capital" not Capitol and the plural of "Fish" is Fish..and its not capital "Jay" it's "J" so suck a dick.
Before you say something...you should know about that something first....turning fishes into loaves is one great miracle. they turned the fishes into bread because the fishes were not enough to feed the people...5 pieces of fish was turned into bread feeding 5,000men excluding women and children...and there were still leftovers
do you really believe that crap you typing???? Wonder what you will think when your dying...
u are ignorant and stupid
hey you need to get your facts straight Jesus did not turn fish into bread! read your bible more he turned stones to bread!
Actually we do not need to fight we do cause we are greedy and selfish and think of nothing but what we want to have or do even if we make others suffer in doing so getting along would be great we would have everything we want health, food, advances in science to make life easier and better but we cannot do those things when you have the money hungry wanting more like a fat kid and cake always wanting more a little is never enough to satisfy those who are power or money hungry wars are for....

Please, please; I know this is the age of texting and all that, but there is such a thing as punctuation for a reason! I could hardly understand what what you wrote. You had some good thoughts, but in order to make others feel it and understand, an occasional comma or period is necessary, Okay? This is meant as constructive criticism.
it would be hilarious if it turned out to be a laboratory test subject that was a failure
If you edify a wise man he will learn from it and be better off. If you edify a fool you can do nothing but make him mad. Stop taunting the fools. They know not the truth nor can you make them understand it.
this is the evidence that it does not takes million of years to get life or to evolve life. It just take miracle of our God.
So this article is discussing the fact that an animal thought to be extinct is, in fact, not extinct. Interesting that almost all of the comments are of people arguing back and forth about religion. How did that happen??? Science and religion don't have to contradictory of each other; people just have to stop being idiots.

In that picture and information box... it says something like it's rare and has been extinct for a long time... if so, then... What's it doing on a table and not a water?
i agree but u kinda spelled the living fossil of the sea's name wrong
If you believe in the "big bang", where did the initial speck come from? What caused it to blow up? how many universes are there? There has to be some form of creationism. Face it, these things are beyond our ability to fathom. I hope and pray there is another dimension beyond this one. And that in the next one, whether you call it Heaven or not, I find some answers. Me and Jesus have to have a sit-down and I want some details! LMFAO!
The fallicy of the religious right is that just because science can't explain something now, it never will, or that religion DOES. If two people are arguing over an issue, any issue, one is not always right, if the other is wrong. Shades of grey exist
I'm so relieved to discover that none of these animals are well and truly gone from this earth. Though I must say, I was pretty shocked about the coelecanth being rediscovered. It's such a cool fish. :)
Also, before anyone goes off on me for the headline of my post, I merely used that statement to express my gratitude of the fact that these species aren't extinct. I refuse to start an argument over something as childish as scientific or religious views, my own beliefs aside.
IDK why everyone is fightin.... im happy... thanks to you all i have made great advancement to my research... here's what i believe.... religious belief is but a parachute and science in the hands of our species is a speeding racing car... if we go to fast we'll crash so religion will slow science down... if religion slows us down too much ppl will want change and science will bring us back to speed.... that's why there is a pattern in history... a dark age will be brought to light by science....

I can't believe all you religious fanatics and JERKS who say that the formerly extint animals should be wiped out instead of being allowed to continue to live.
1. The way you religious guys keep going on about it, you'd think the science community's responsible for bringing some of these COOL creatures back from the dead through science, yet your all ignoring the info that said that some of those animals that have supposedly been reported extinct for decades or centuries have reported as....

I would not do this to anyone on the earth but Jesus. If he existed which is debatable and dont you forget that.
I would ******* assrape jesus. then I think I would ******* rip out his heart and eat it for being one of the worst hippocrites of all time
You can't talk about me that way... I'm omnipotent.
Ha I agree, that hell thing is funny.
But are you secrious, thats disrespectfult.
You sound stupid and ignorant. For what reason would u say that. Even If I didn't have the same religious vaules...Anyway u sound cool....sike. Get outta here with that.
Need I say more?
all i have to say is that the only thing these discovers prove is that as humans we dont see past our noses thats all these critters have been around for what 1000's of years and we havent seen them thats nether religion or smarts but our own stupidity and as we argue over the little details. while these few remaining critters will die off. why becouse of us and our closed mindedness and stupidity. we just arent looking and wont till its too late. still yet you argue over religion and other....

i want it fried
What did God do after resting on the 7th Day? There was an 8th Day, 9Th Day etc. Would God stop creating, more life forms, more universes? Or do you think God just said, "I'll only create one intelligent life form, and then stop creating anymore intelligent life forms? Man is my masterpiece, and that's it???" Come on, think deeper..Why did God only laugh once in all of the Holy Bible? (The King James version) Why so many great stories of destruction, torture, incest, wars, etc, but not one.... More
I am completely fasinated by the article...species thought extinct, being found! Personally I love to hear about and study all sorts of creatures and on some level I want to believe that there are species yet to be discovered. Heck, we actually know very little about the species we have discovered! We can't even get along with each other though so why should we think we can save some fish or some bird or some...anything from being wiped out when we can't even save ourselves. By the way I also.... More
Out of all the comments no one has just stopped and marveled at the fact that, that fish is a real life dinosaur and probably the longest surviving species of animal on the planet. Simply Incredible, all the unsolved mysteries, the unknowns, and wonders that this planet has to provide.
Don't you guys know the that the Earth was created when Eurynome, Gaia, Tartarus, Eros and Erebus emerged From Chaos. Then Gaia gave birth to Oranos. Then they gave birth to the titans who controlled everything?
Stupid people haven't you learned anything about religion??
