Either that, or there's been a whole lot of misegenatin' goin' on off Cape Horn!!! Maybe the critters are just thawing out of the Antarctic ice, because of (you gujessed it) global warming.

Hiding out in the Roaring Forties and Furious Fifties. Heck maybe that’s where the Great Auk, Dodo bird and the Tasmanian Tiger are hiding out.

;^) Plucking the picture links off an NG story is, uh, not as easy as it sounds. See the glass roman bowl topic of a few days back for a discussion of this problem. :^)

Good idea btw, I added those to the keywords. the Roaring Forties keyword is pretty decent-sized now, considering...

I imagine cracking on sail to take advantage of the Roaring Forties would have been exhilarating and terrifying at the same time.
To: Vaquero
but I thought we new everything about every creature on earth. and now they find a completely new “large” creature. Who the hell is minding the store when we have these kind of oversights. Global warming! just to authenticate the story line

At the bottom of the world, in some of the roughest seas, live mysterious killer whales that look very different from other orcas. Let me guess.... since it is the southern hemisphere, these must be antorcas?
