A beach in California was covered one morning in early December after the ocean washed up thousands upon thousands of “penis fish” on shore.
Talk about a rude awakening!
Bay Nature Magazine captured the photos on the shore of Drake’s Beach which covered corner to corner with the marine worm.
While their scientific name is Urechis caupo, they are commonly known as fat inkeeper fish or penis fish. Because, well, you get it.
Each one measures at 10-inches of pink flesh with a bulge and a narrow opening at one end.
Hmmm…sounds oddly familiar!
