No Evidence of Mermaids, Says U.S. Government

Thanks for clearing that up, Uncle Sam.

These don’t exist. Nor do the other kind of mermaids.

Science has found no evidence that mermaids exist, a US government scientific agency has said.

The National Ocean Service made the unusual declaration in response to public inquiries following a TV show on the mythic creatures.

It is thought some viewers may have mistaken the programme for a documentary.

“No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found,” the service wrote in an online post.
