mighty2: A stunned fisherman has shared photo and video of a fish he caught that has a bird's head in China. The strange fish with a bird's head
A bizarre-looking fish has made waves on the internet in China because of its unusual 'bird' head, a report by Dailymail has revealed.
The creature was caught by a local fisherman in Guizhou, south-west area of China, reported Guizhou Urban Newspaper. Video footage shows the odd fish gasping on the ground. While its body looks like a normal fish's body, its head has a distinctive, mismatched shape.
The video has been circulating on Chinese online forums as well as on Facebook in the past week, leaving web users debating over what the creature really is.
People have compared the shaped of the fish's head to that of a pigeon, parrot or dolphin. One Facebook user, called 'Hong Fang', questioned: 'Is this a cross-breed of carp and dolphin?'
While another Facebook user 'Duan Yiching' said: 'It looks like a radioactive fish to me.'
Fish expert at Natural History Museum told MailOnline that they cannot identify the exact species of the fish but concluded that it is under the group, Cyprinidae, as a carp family.
The fish in the video could be showing a deformity known as 'pug-head', which is often seen in fishes, stated the expert.
International Union for Conservation of Nature explained that water pollution, genetic mutations and injury early in life could be the possible causes to the abnormal appearance of the fish.
Yang Xing, an expert from the Guizhou Fisheries Research Institute, told Guizhou Urban Daily that the bird-headed fish is actually a carp and it's deformed.
The expert said deformation is commonly seen among the freshwater fish species.
He carried on explaining the possible causes of the deformation.
'One possibly is that the embryo was damaged when it was growing; another possibility is that the lack of oxygen in water - due to over-crowded fishing farming - caused the fish's head to be deformed.'
According to the report, the fish was set free by the anglers after being caught.
Butterflyleo: Right and wrong have no neutral placements. Its either something is absolutely wrong or absolutely right.
Our world recognizes things like partly right and partly wrong but for a man to be truly upright and spotless then he must be seen to be standing for what is absolutely right and not for what is partly right or partly wrong.
do what has your grammar got to do with the question.. just one way which being gay is destroying the earth and you dey blow English.. Name it and kind you not everybody is part of your religion; so keep it in your pocket.
ScienceWatch: What happens to your car when it is in neutral ? Have you tried to fight a war in neutral ?
if the car is in neutral it Give me opportunity to clearly take my time Time to view an event properly without a rush.. that’s exactly what I need you to do.. live and let others live.
ScienceWatch: Ok. Have it your way. You don't want to hear the superior wisdom of the ancients.
Now you got me cornered, what shall I say ? How will I answer your profound question without the Bulshits ?
If I give you my honest opinion, I would venture to say that the gay movement has negatively affected the universe by climate change. There is now a hole in the Ozone layer sir.
can you just see things from a neutral point of view ?
ScienceWatch: Pseudo science is the atheists bible. GMO foods falsely punted as a boon to mankind, is extremely unhealthy. Even animals that fed GMO wheat has died under laboratory conditions.
Atheism is synonymous with the socially destructive Gay Movement.
gay movement is destructive? In what way has it affected the universe nagatively ? Jus make sure you don’t come with your religion bulshits
ScienceWatch: You are fully aware that in spite of all your beloved technology, scientist are still speculating on what ancient sacred doctrines have stated as fact without technology. Therefore, is modern man much more intellectually backward than our ancient ancestors. The ancient human are much wiser than our modern atheists.
oh you mean religious assertions like the sun revolve round the earth and others?
ScienceWatch: Millions of innocent little babies are freely killed because atheists worship their SATANIC deity called NO-GOD.
Horrific abortions of babies are encouraged, men having anal sex with each other are encouraged, shoving parents into prisons called old age homes are encouraged, ETC, ETC.
The destruction of healthy societies is atheism's goal.
these epedemics goes on rapidly in Nigeria where 98% of their populations are religious; just wondering the culprits though!
rekinomtla: Don't know, wasn't necessary. Just know it wasn't because they tortured or killed him. The pope most likely just apologized due to the fact that Galileo was actually correct.
the church is a retrogressive epidemy to humankind..
rekinomtla: The bold in fact never happened. Galileo was never tortured nor killed, thats an atheist myth. Do your research, he was placed under house arrest and later died of natural causes.
Don't trust what atheists have told you about the churche's relationship with science, they lie a hell of alot about that. Rather do your own research.
rekinomtla: True but the question is how much harm has it done to man.
it’s has solved almost all man’s problem and quest.. ranging from transportation to communication and interaction; healthcare and critical thinking to but mention but a few.. the. I challenge you to mention just one positive attribute of religion to humankind..
MissJoy29: Exactly my thought. I was even suprised no one mentioned it. Even though I don't believe this story (for obvious reasons) but that's the first thing that came to my mind when I read the post. Why 170k? That's too low for the stress he's passing through.
shoe get size; the same sex some runs girls take flight to Abuja to do is same that some girls somewhere do for 3k..
