No, they are obviously covering great distances now and going into other oceans. They were initially only found in the Pacific ocean. The one they found a few days ago here off Barbados is a baby. On Discovery Channel, I have seen how ridiculously huge those fish can grow. Odd looking fish with an odd size and it makes me wonder... what other strange looking fish have we not found as yet. The oceans are so vast so more yachts should have glass bottoms. It is said that Octopus has some sort of a view bottom? not sure how large it is though.
