When I was making my way down the eastern coast of Borneo by ramshackle public boat taxis in the middle of nowhere I was held up in this tiny little town because of the complete lack of adherence to boat time tables.
It was about mid-day and I was sitting around on the pier when I actually saw dozens and dozens of fish actually walk out of the water and onto the land to hunt for food using their pectoral fins as make-shift legs.
They were not small either, each of these fish was about the size of a fist.
I am familiar with the theory of evolution and of land mammals as adaptions of sea creatures that crawled onto the land but I never thought I would actually see it with my own eyes.
Freaky!
Whats the freakiest thing you have seen on your travels?
