Rejecting evolution: Mola Mola

Since having seen Ocean Sun Fishes or Mola Mola in aquariums of Barcelona, Lisbon and Monterey I always wanted to dive with them. The place to go between July and September is Nusa Penida, an island close to Bali. Last year it worked out and this year again. Mola Mola somehow rejected evolution and it feels as diving with a weird kind of dinosaur. The Sun Fish above measured about 2.50 meter in length.
