However, with further investigation and by looking at the Source Code of the website in question we can see this is more of a publicity stunt done by Discovery Channel and Animal Planet. The website’s tagging and descriptions on the source code reveal that is more for entertainment than an actual Department of Homeland Security or DOJ confiscation of a website. Things like the title, “Mermaids are Real � Real Evidence from Dr. Paul Robertson, NOAA researcher” and the title of the main DOJ Image, “Mermaid Legends-Mermaid Sightings-water creature” and the alt text of the image, “Mermaid legend is true, and there is proof of real live mermaids” make you believe that this site was keyworded to go along with the Mermaid’s Body Found series on Animal Planet.
Now if we’re being up front here, if Discovery Communications was really trying to pull a fast one on you they could have made the site more real. It’s obviously all in fun to get you excited about their Mermaid Series and spread chatter about Mermaid conspiracies. Discovery could have easily registered the domain as a private registration and made the source code look more realistic with actual DOJ & Homeland Security information there.

I can tell you with 100% certainty that this is for real.
The implications of the public being shown...what I have been told...is not only better quality video and pictues but also some VERY specific scientific data...which my...Friend....believes is DNA evidence....such implications would be...DRAMATIC.

I am aware of this...however the subject of this topic is a reality and this new data that will POSSIBLY be uploaded is very clear.
To see other evidence...for thousands of years and as recent as just this year...large fish and sharks...such as Maco, Tiger and Great White have been and were caught with Bone and Coral Spear Tips imbedded in them.
