The World's Most Credible Mermaid Sightings: Myth or Fact?
When I say the word "mermaid," most of us picture a beautiful woman with flowy hair and a shimmering tail. But if we’re being real for a second, a creature living in the ocean would probably look a lot more like a fish, scaly, slimy, and maybe a bit slippery.
