What kind of Fish is This???

It looks like a very deep sea fish, but the looked like it was doctored up to make it look crazy and exotic

HOLY CRAP! I'm sitting in a pitch black room and I click on that and I almost fell out of my chair! Jeez! That's taxidermy at its wierdest! They took one of those angler fish and put a monkey's face on it.

Hey dude it's gotta be one of those dark dwellers. you know one of those fish that comes from the dark depths of the ocean that nobody has the gut's to explore. I've seen pics of some of the fish down there and they're pretty freaky. This fish looks similar

KKLover, that fish is fake.

And even is if was to be real, how did it get from the ocean bottom to the beach??
If it was done by pro's it would have made the news...

It was supposedly a picture taken after the December 26 Tsunamis. But a Tsunami doesn't bring things from the deep sub continental waters. Fake.

Nope, it was sold on eBay by a guy who says he "found it" on a Florida beach.

He's now selling a "mermaid " that he claims to have "found" on a Floridian beach as well.

He has also sold a sea monster, little mermaid/monster, a fish with "human" face, etc .

Sidenote: here he wins the bid on a TAXIDERMY PRIMATE BABOON SKULL

Anyone wanna take a stab at what his hobby/profession is?

How the hell did he get a human head?

On the net, of course.

Or any local "science supply" store.

After that, a few taxidermist's glass eyes (for an animal who's eyes are of a similar size), a few hours fishing for a "body" to work with (or a trip to a well stocked local fish market), and then..... taa daa!

The supplies are the easy part.

As long as you've got the taxidermy skills you're set.
