Any of you scurvy dogs missing an eye? A beachcomber in Pompano Beach, Florida may have found it. Doesn’t look human though.

Any guesses where it came from?

I am guessing a huge-ass squid!
so what is it?
Read in the Miami Paper it was a sword fish eye.
swordfish for sure. It's blue and huge, couldn't be anything else.
you see?!?! that’s why you don’t play with swords….
He poked his eye out!
Giant squid?
Jeff, Yes Giant Squid has my vote, unless of course the B rated 1950's Sci Fi's are finally coming true.
Squid?
Whatever it is my wife wants to steam it in vinegar with some shredded ginger and wansoy leaves.
Giant squid
That eye is from a child of our pet 300 Feet long squid, Chewie. Chewie's, and his wife's or girlfriend, Jennie squid's kids were running with scissors and had an "accident." We were tryijnig to recover the eyeball so that Uncle Nepture could work his magic and reconnect the eye into little Squeegie's eye socket.
