Possible mermaid spotted off Israel
Half-girl/half-dolphin creature appears only at sunset ... and will probably sing, dance and destroy mankind.

The creature, according to the fast-growing local legend, performs a series of acrobatic tricks before disappearing beneath the Mediterranean waves.

It could be a sign, of the end of the world in 2012 just guessing.
I believe that the mermaid is sending a sign , what sign I don't no. I just have a feeling that she was trying to tell us something. Of course we never listen, human's are only in it for fun games and money.
hey i have seen her alot in the water me in her play water tag with dolphines oh i for got to mention i am a mermaid as well i turned into a mermaid and i got a blue tail
PT Barnum would be proud.
i think i know where she came from because in WWW.real-wishes.com, there is a section saying "Tell Your Story", and in that section, a girl wrote that she wished to become a mermaid, and that it came true, various stories after that were informing her about the mermaid sightings right after her wish came true, maybe its her, you should try to contact that person.
If we do get a picture or catch her
What we going to do?....
I mean there isnt much but ask her where the hell she came from
and then probably throw her in a tank so men can perve on her
I really don't see what this has to do with the web site...then again, like someone said: lighthearted articles from time to time are fun!
I was that one kid who believed in mythical things way longer then most (oddly enough, I stopped believing in Santa much earlier....), and while confirmation would be just the magical highlight of my life...dude, the poor (hypothetical) creature! It would never get a moments piece and forever be nothing more then an object of scientific study and.... More
To the 'Anonymous' poster who was 1st up; Have you lost your sense of wonder,or have you no 'magic' in your life? If so, how sad for you......mermaids (and men), dragons, faeries & pixie dust can all bringsome lightness and yes, 'magic', into our lives, and re-awaken that playful spirit in us. Keep publishing these wonderful stories!
Not sure how this fits in to the scope of the Mother Nature Network. Yeah, a mermaid - come on, let's get in touch with the real world here. Please don't report on things like this anymore.
It's wonderfully ironic that a viewer dismissed the Mermaiden sighting story as far-fetched ~ a "fetch" being both the distance a sea-wave runs and the name given a totemic se-creature ~ how fetching!
I think it is great that MNN posted a story like this.. There is no need for you to be so uptight over such a lighthearted article, learn to laugh at the silly things in life.
This is just delightful! Thank you for making me laugh!
Like Triton, son of Poseidon and Amphitrite.
There are the Siren Sisters Hevatica and Dilithase. And Hans Christian Anderson's The Little Mermaid.
