Sunfish, otherwise known as mola, is a quite larger fisher than most others in the ocean. It’s mostly found along the tropical parts of the earth. It’s rather thick and can grow to be as heavy as a thousand kilograms.

Unfortunately, sunfish is an endangered species and is soon to be extinct if the world doesn’t react quickly. It’s one of a kind which is why it’s considered to be a delicacy. It’s safe to eat, but you might have to go far to find it.

Because it’s in such danger, countries of the European Union banned the consumption and sale of the fish. However, you can enjoy a meal of sunfish in some regions of Japan, Korea, and Taiwan where the fish is prepared by world-class chefs in luxury restaurants.

I only ever saw 1, sailing in the ATLANTIC near Cape Fear, I first thought it was a tractor tire fallen off some cargo ship. Until it lifted its gigantic head.
