Of all the weird and wonderful creatures you might come across in the sea, a mutant shark with ‘a human face’ doesn’t spring to mind The fisherman had first accidentally caught an adult shark in his trawler net and when he cut open its stomach, three pups were inside.
One of them had a distinctly ‘human’ appearance, with two large round eyes underneath its snout.
‘I initially found a mother shark caught in the trawler net,’ explained Nuren. 'The next day I split the belly of the mother shark and found three pups in the stomach.
‘Two were like the mother and this one looked like it had a human face.’
