Mermaid Update

Israel Mermaid Fever Makes A Splash: Mythical Creature Spotted Near Haifa | World News | Sky News: "Israel is in the grips of mermaid fever after numerous sightings of the mythical sea creature off its coast.

One town council is taking the reports so seriously it is offering a $1m (�609,000) reward to anyone who can prove the existence of a mermaid in its waters.

Kiryat Yam municipality, near Haifa, says it has been told of dozens of sightings in the past few months.

They say it is a female figure, it looks like a young girl.

'Many people are telling us they are sure they've seen a mermaid and they are all independent of each other,' council spokesman Natti Zilberman told Sky News."
