    Russian fishermen catch squeaking alien and eat it
    Front page / Science / Mysteries
    07.02.2007

    Village residents from the Rostov region of Russia caught a weird creature two weeks ago after a strong storm in the Sea of Azov. The shark-looking creature was producing strange squeaky sounds. The fishermen originally believed that they had caught an alien and decided to film the monster with the help of a cell phone camera. The footage clearly shows the creatures’ head, body and long tail. The bizarre catch was weighing almost 100 kilograms, the Komsomolskaya Pravda reports.

    However, ufologists and scientists were greatly disappointed when they found out that the fishermen had eaten the monster. They said that they were not scared of the creature so they decided to use it as food. One of the men said that it was the most delicious dish he had ever eaten.

    Chairman of the Anomalous Phenomena Service, Andrei Gorodovoi, stated that the creature, which he could see on the short video, was an anomalous being. However, it could hardly be described as an extraterrestrial form of life, he added. Gorodovoi rejected the version about mermaids too. “There are many legends about mermaids living in the Sea of Azov. Nevertheless, specialists of the Service for Anomalous Phenomena have never confirmed those fairytales. On the other hand, we do not deny the possibility of other forms of life in the Sea of Azov,” the ufologist sad.

    A spokesman for the Rostov-based zoo, Alexander Lipkovich, contacted local ichthyologists and asked their opinion about the Azov alien. “They said that the fish bears resemblance to a sturgeon. It was an extremely interesting individual. I have never seen anything like this before in my whole life,” the specialist said.

    Fisherman1: "I've never seen anything like it before"
    Fisherman2: "What the hell is that?"
    Fisherman3: "Dinner!"

    Fisherman1: "Let's film it with the camera phone!"
    Fisherman2: "Let's take to a marine biologist!"
    Fisherman3: "Let's eat it!"

    Fisherman1: "Do you even know how to clean it?"
    Fisherman2: "What - you have a recipe for how to cook a monster?"
    Fisherman3: "No, and no. But I'm eating it anyway!"

    Probably just another species of fish/mammals that we had no idea existed before this sighting i.e. the giant squid, etc. Could be one the deep sea dwelling fish/life that we are just now discovering. You never know.

    Where's the part about how the fisherman who ate it suddenly became super intelligent but withdrawn from his family and was seen building a strange looking device.

    The picture is the underside of a sawfish with the saw taken off. This is another picture (the best I could find) but you get the point.

    I sent the article and movie link to one of my professors. He is one the leaders in snake behavior and evolution research. If anyone knows anything about this grotesque creature it would be him. I am interested to see what he says. Ill post an update when I hear form him.

    Did you read about that or did you realize it yourself?

    Nice assumption if you did. Makes sense to me.
