Description

The Southern Ocean contains an unusual collection of aquatic creatures that inhabit both on under ice and below this and certainly in the water are another variety of beings, many of them hidden from the human eye. One of them had been sighted by humans, and initially had passed as one of other cryptic creatures that are a misinterpretation. The ningen remained hidden for many years until first specimens were found swimming outside the continent. The first sightings occurred in New Zealand, being a huge corpse that had come partially intact. Hence, he had to stay many years before a live specimen was found.

From what could be seen the corpse is that it was a huge mammal, about 7 meters long, and with an estimated nearly 60 tons weight.

The first and most prominent protruding was their appearance, shape not stand out with any known mammal, the descriptions given were:

"A huge being with two giant arms that ended with huge and long claws which in the correct position, they should serve as fins; the lower body was long and more compact, with two legs like fins; his head was round and flat, with a separate medium mouth and binoculars eyes, two nostrils on top; with a length of about 15 meters and weighing 70 tons estimated”

Weeks after taking the necessary samples, they began to make genetic relationships to get some idea of what kind of creature is.

After a while, his closest relative was identified as... a sloth.

Yes, a sloth.

At this point people began to wonder: What kind of joke is this? Of course, this was not a joke, that was real, and much more it was when they began to find living specimens. Many of them were around Antarctica, around the Ross Sea, living alone swimming at depths of 50 to 70 meters. They were recorded as predators and who used to hunt medium-sized animals, such as seals, penguins and even young whales. He did not know much more about them, what their lives were, how they were born or how long they could live.

It is not yet known how it evolved, there isn’t any fossil or material evidence that would give us an answer, but is speculated that they may be a descendant of a south American group of giant aquatic sloths as Thalassocnus which were successful to adopt a full aquatic lifestyle, and some of this species reach Antarctica during the end of the Pliocene. Is also not yet known how they avoided the huge marine predators from the times before the ice age, however, it is believed that should have taken advantage of their sudden extinction in the Pleistocene. They survive until the mankind ages, but for shame, they don't survive us.

Unfortunately with global warming, the conditions surrounding territories began to change dramatically in a point that the specimens found soon die and in a decade, and then, after 30 years, the species was declared extinct. The ningen, went from being one of several cryptids to be the example of the lawlessness of humanity during the contemporary era before the great collapse, it will be a recordatory of no matter how much we know about this world, there are hidden things still remain even in front of us...
