Ethiopian cuisine
Both Ethiopian Orthodox Christians and Muslims avoid eating pork or shellfish, for religious reasons. Pork is considered to be unclean in both Ethiopian Orthodox Christianity and Islam. Many Ethiopians would abstain from eating certain meats, and would mostly eat vegetarian and vegan foods.
Oarfish
From December 2009 to March 2010, unusual numbers of the slender oarfish "Regalecus russelii" (宮の使い “Ryūgū-No-Tsukai”,) known in Japanese folklore as the "Messenger from the Sea God's Palace", appeared in the waters and on the beaches of Japan, the appearance of which is said to portend earthquakes.
Oarfish feed primarily on zooplankton, selectively straining tiny euphausiids, shrimp, and other crustaceans from the water. Small fish, jellyfish, and squid are also taken. Large open-ocean carnivores are all likely predators of oarfish.
