An Indonesian fisherman hooked a rare coelacanth…and briefly kept the “living fossil” alive in a quarantined pool. Justinus Lahama caught the four-foot, 110-pound fish early Saturday off Sulawesi island near Bunaken National Marine Park, which has some of the highest marine biodiversity in the world. The fish died 17 hours later, an extraordinary survival time, marine biologist Lucky Lumingas said Sunday. “The fish should have died within two hours because this species only lives in deep, cold-sea environment,” he said.
