Woman left confused after discovering 'odd-looking' sea creature on UK beach

A woman was left confused after discovering an 'odd-looking' sea creature on a UK beach. Katherine Hawkes, 39, found the fish, which is rarely spotted in Great Britain, washed up on the beach.

The Mirror reports that the 39-year-old was out on a New Year's Day walk with her family in Norfolk when she came across the huge sunfish. The sea creature is normally found basking in the rays of hot sun and is usually only seen in tropical waters.

However, experts believe that its presence in the UK could be down to warming oceans. The strange looking creature is the largest bony fish in the world and has an interesting back fin which is shaped like a bullet.
