Are mermaids a tale of myth or mistaken identity? ⬇️
In 2012, the television channel Animal Planet aired a show claiming to show evidence that mermaids are real.
A month after the program aired, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration posted a statement on its website denouncing the supposed existence of the half-human, half-fish beings."No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found," the post read.In mythology, mermaids — or mermaidlike creatures — have existed for thousands of years.
Since then, many other mermaid stories have appeared in folklore from various cultures around the world. For instance, the African water spirit Mami Wata is mermaid in form, as is the water spirit Lasirn, who is popular in folklore in the Caribbean Islands. Columbus claimed to have spotted mermaids near Haiti in 1493, which he described as being"not as pretty as they are depicted, for somehow in the face they look like men," according to the American Museum of Natural History.—Will humans ever learn to speak whale?
