A California woman was walking her dog on Grandview Beach in Encinitas when she came across a very rare, deep-sea fish.

Alison Laferriere, who happens to be a PhD candidate at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of San Diego, said she identified the "doomsday fish" knowing it was a "rare occurrence."

The oarfish, also known as a "doomsday fish," measures roughly 9-to-10 feet long.
