Fisherman off of the Spanish island of Ceuta, located off of the Moroccan Coast, managed to find a sizable oddity tangled in their nets.... a four thousand pound Sunfish! Their scale only went up to a thousand kilos so weighing the massive fish would've broken it. Instead the fish was turned over to a team of researchers also on board who measured, photographed, and took DNA samples of the big fish, as well as giving it many pets, before releasing it back into the wild. It measured at ten feet long and nine feet wide.
