Here are some fun facts about coelacanths:
Coelacanths are often called "living fossils" because they closely resemble fish that lived more than 400 million years ago.
Scientists once believed coelacanths had gone extinct with the dinosaurs until a living specimen was discovered off the coast of South Africa in 1938.
They have unique lobed fins that are supported by bones, making them different from most modern fish.
Coelacanths can grow over 6 feet long and weigh more than 150 pounds.
They live in deep ocean waters and are most active at night.
