My god what are these things eating these days?

People who go to the deep sea to investigate if they actually exist or not

But notice the teeth on your picture shows them to be relatively uniform in size and type, whereas these teeth vary like canine, incisor, molar, etc.... thats not how fishes adapted as far as I know.

fish don't have bicuspid, canine or molar teeth. They do not have forward facing eyes.
This is Phoneyshopped.

Isn't this an odd form of art using what was a living once and sewing it up along with other parts to make something Dr. Frankenstein would be proud of.

Still that Tiger Fish scares the hell out of me!
If I caught that on my pole, I'd throw the pole in the river!

No, actually it's taxidermied. If that's a word.

This is incorrect. Respectfully, their are a few 'barrel eyed' who do have forward facing eye pairs; again in the mid ocean depths those fish who live in the twilight 'zone' ( ) look upward to catch their prey silhouetted against the barley visible surface light... both their eyes face forward.

I realize that it looks half dog half fish which also looks photoshoped but I'm just saying there are some crazy man eating fish out there either way. We also can't say that it's real without some evidence of it swimming, it would be cool if we were a water type people though. I could see people walking/swimming that thing on a leash by water parks.

Maybe curious George got way too curious and did a little cross humping with a Piranha ??? LOL

It's the deadly ass-snapper found in the Bermuda-triangle...occasionally he just chills on the beach and checks out da chicks...as you can see by his expression...he's mesmerized.

I hear THAT! I take it back though about the OP's photo....it's NOT an angler fish, I think it is a hoax after all.....BUT, with that being said....there really are some HORRIBLE creatures in the sea, and angler fish and the demon/tiger fish are real.
