Webbed-toed woman found wandering in California claims she's a mermaid

Syndactyly, eh?
Not that uncommon.
Intriguing in a way, as it can be hereditary (about half of webbed-toe folks have a parent with the condition).
Maybe it's like one last tribe of dolphin people living among us? :D

I hope they can help the girl though, sounds like she had some mishap.

Looks like she's been identified and is receiving help to reunite with family.
