As the story goes, this creature is 1,400-years-old and once appeared to a local prince claiming to have once been a regular fisherman who was cursed after fishing in protected waters. The mermaid is said to have asked the prince to build the shrine as a reminder of his mistake, displaying the cursed corpse for all to see. However this is more likely a taxidermy abomination.
Even though the fantastical beings are clearly fiction, there are still places all over the world where you can visit actual mermaids in some form or another whether they are Barnumesque hokum, frolicking manatees that inspired the myth in the first place, and even some South Korean fisherwomen that have come to be known as mermaids. All across the world, mermaids are real!
The other reason is tourism and the attitudes of humans toward sea creatures, especially intelligent ones.
When not cruising coral reefs, mermaids harvest seaweed forests, reaching up rock walls or swimming in and out of kelp trunks, feeding off the leaves of the best tasting kelp, and catching small fish also feeding there .
Behaviors - Mermaids take breaks from the ocean, often sitting on isolated volcanic rocks, sunbathing, and combing through their hair. They eat seaweed and raw fish. They frequently frolic with dolphins and likely communicate with them too. Mermaids recognize value, salvaging useful and beautiful items from shipwrecks.
Since mermaids don't have legs, they can't ride on the backs of dolphins, but they can race each other holding onto a dolphin's fins. They also play ball , with mermaids using their hands to throw and catch, and dolphins using their mouths. They have splash fights, play hide and seek through caves and reefs, and tag or chase in the open ocean. They compete to see who can blow the biggest bubbles, and mermaids often swim through the bubbles the dolphins blow. And, of course, mermaids have their own games without dolphins.
They often make seaweed mats to float lazily across the ocean. Unless humans or wounded shark predators are around, stress is generally low. (Stress is the biggest killer in humanoids—reducing resilience and leading to all kinds of other diseases.) As long as water and air are clean, mermaids are able to stay healthy.
Looks - We know that mermaids are human looking, with long hair and fish-like tails, instead of legs. Their skin is smooth and sensitive, except for the tails, which we can imagine being scaly and slippery. They have an upper body like ours, with arms and hands like ours that can manipulate objects.
The plastic causes starvation, which reduces the amount of food for populations higher up the food chain.
