Mystery fish stumps Barrow elders, biologists

Link: The Arctic Sounder The hottest roadside attraction in Barrow these days is a frozen fish on display beside Charles Maasak Brower's house. It's not just any fish, locals say, and biologists agree. Brower found the footlong, eel-like creature dead on the beach being gnawed by a fox. He brought it back to town and asked elders and biologists whether they'd ever seen anything like it. They hadn't, but biologists speculate it's a species of wolffish that lives in the Arctic but hasn't shown up in Barrow before.
