The mystery of the huge blue eyeball

The mystery of the huge blue eyeball

A grapefruit sized eyeball, discovered on a beach in the US, is puzzling wildlife officials who have not been able to identify the species of creature that seems to have lost it.

'It was very, very fresh,' Gino Covacci, who discovered the eyeball told the Sun Sentinel on Thursday. 'It was still bleeding when I put it in the plastic bag.'

Mr Covacci notified the local police, who referred the matter to Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

They put the eyeball on ice so it can be analyzed at the Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute in St. Petersburg.

Agency spokeswoman Carli Segelson says the eyeball likely came from a marine animal, since it was found on a beach. Possible candidates include a giant squid, a whale or some type of large fish.
