Recently, a volunteer at Sunset Beach, Oregon, stumbled on a washed-up, bright-silver-and-orange moonfish on the shore—and the discovery caused quite a stir among the locals due to its unique appearance.
The volunteer spotted the moonfish, or opah (also called a sunfish), on the morning of July 15, and immediately called Seaside Aquarium, part of the Marine Mammal Stranding Network (the specimen already being dead).
