I know that many people have been asking this question, but are mermaids real?

I have heard of many people talking about them recently, and a friend traveled to a certain country where sightings of them are almost natural. She saw a couple of men holding some uncontrollable moving object from the sea, and when she came to look closer, she saw a mermaid. She described it like this: human top half, fishy bottom. The top human half was a female, who was very thin, and had sharp teeth, like a shark. She had long, flowing hair and elf-like ears. In this country's culture, it is believed that a mermaid mesmerizes a person with her eyes. I wasn't sure my friend was telling the truth, but after seeing a picture of the now-dead mermaid, I don't know what to believe. What do you think?

Reply:The belief is that sailors used to see manatee's and believe they were mermaids.


Who knows, I believe it's possible.

Of course, you friend's sighting says it happened in "a certain country", which usually means the Republic of BS.
Reply:Yes, Mermaids are real. But they are not half woman and Half fish. The are animals and very ugly at that. There is nothing human about them.
Reply:there is no mermaids. dont you think that if there was mermaids fishermen would have caught one already or it would have been all over the news its not real.
Reply:Yes they are...if you go to the beach in Haiti at night you'll here a women at night(if your a man) calling to you. If you ever here that DON'T GO! Cause if you do then you'll be her slave forever. They are half womne and half fish. In Haiti we also eat them we call them Moi (mou-ee). Mermaids are real!
Reply:Negative.
Reply:no mermmaides aren't real in my opinion but there are always possibilites god can create life and new things every day if you believe in god that is and i do
Reply:Mermaids and mermen are real. They have been sighted at all times throughout history by all sea-faring peoples, described pretty much as your friend did. The oft-quoted nonsense that sailors mistook manatees or dugongs for lady-like animals is ridiculous, as all sailors are expert at noticing sea-life and identifying creatures, particularly fisherman, the class that most often reports mermaids. This also ignores significant historical instances in the Shetlands, Netherlands, etc., of large communities witnessing merpeople, complete with repected members like clergy and magistrates attesting in writing to that fact. Less than 50% of the life in the oceans has been categorized and described by science, including many large species. The merpeople may be a branch of homo sapiens who, much like dolphins but at a later date, returned to the seas. Some anthropologists claim we display traits of an aquatic period in our own evolution, such as lack of body hair and a downturned nose.

Reply:Mermaids are not real. My Dad was in the navy for 22 years and sailed all over the world. Never once saw a Mermaid. After you are out to sea for so long, your eyes and your mind play tricks on you and you think you see what you want to see.
Reply:I believe in mermaids as a I believe in extraterrestrial. I really believe there are somewhere and i also believe that somewhere in deep waters , something devil is hiding.So i believe even if mermaids really exist are devil so i don't want and i don't care to meet them.
