Strange Ancient Fish like creature found in South Africa

The T-Rex of fish?


First off, i don't know if this a hoax played by someone, but experts are looking into it and it seems real, so hopefully we will know soon!

A strange looking fish has been found on Longbeach in Noordhoek, Cape Town, South Africa.

Prof. Paul Skelton, Director of SAIAB said he thought it was a mamal of some kind at first. It looks similar to Anarrhichthys ocellatus but is not found anywhere near South Africa.

The teeth look like some kind of predator, but at this point there are many options.

Dr. Jurie van den Heever (Paleontologist) says it might be some type of seal, but the teeth are strange. He also doesn't think it can be a fish.

Specialist are now being sought to unravel this mystery.
