Heh. You'll notice he's very careful to say it's 100% once-living animal, but he doesn't say it was all from the same animal... 
Taxidermo-licious!
Diana
If you cover up the jaws with your thumb while you look at the picture, it's obvious that it's just a sealion body on its back, that he's reamed out and sliced up the front and inserted tiger jaws into.

I think that they are not tiger jaws...although they could be, but I see a whole monkey, gorilla, ape type skull when I look at it.

Maybe he is sellin' this 'cause he sold out of Jackalopes!

jeff
definatly photoshop.if u look at the overall picture you will see that it clearly sticks out, as though it doesnt belong.and if you look really closely you'll see that it has DOG EARS!!!! :\
Mike
Atho it looks like it could be real, the teeth remind me of a grizzly bear.

There is no way this thing died with its mouth open, and there is no way the things mouth could be bigger than the rest of its body.
Randy
It looks to me like a failing taxidermist is looking for a way to save his buiseness!
cozmo

You people must not have ever set one foot in a real aquarium. Take a look at this link since you all seem to only live on the internet. Have you guys never heard of angler fish, and viperfish? They are extremely rare creatures, and very few if any, have been deemed fully grown. All they have found so far are (supposedly)adolescent fish. These fish only live in the deepest recesses of the ocean. Only recently have divers been able to take submersibles that deep. These creatures are precious to us as we are just now learning about their existance. Most of them are sick ugly looking creatures, but you had better believe that every time you go into the water, THERE ARE monsters of the deep. Check out the link I gave you. You may change your minds.

Woah..That's so creepy when I looked at I looked at the weird colored building in the background and I thought 'Hey that looks like that place I went to in Tampa Florida' So I read the stuff and I found out it was actually in Tampa
Yeah, So I showed my friends this and they said it was a edit but I actually believe that this could be a extinct mummified fish
G-style
man that look fake the top of the jaw angles downward and the bottom part is straight. that should be the other way around cuz it would look as if his top jaw would close and the bottom part would be the part that dont move. that would cause this thing to strugle wit eatin hence extinction.........feel at
G-style
plus there is no way this washed up on shore cuz if it truly was a deep dweller than it would have died compressed and sank to the bottom of the ocean so the only way he could have found this is if he went diving in a sub.........also Rigor mortis would have set in long ago, way before the anamal's skin had dried out
G-style
as u can see amy is completely retarded and gullable cuz nothing can survive adiquitely with a head that is two times larger than its body so to Amy i laugh hahahahahahahaha retard
chris
i know the guy,its a fake he told me,so thats it settled,sorry to disapoint some of you
Rachelle Courtial
I don't know if it's real or not, but some people keep saying that the body is on it, and thats oviously just a head in the picture, and I'm comfused about what size it is, it looks big in the picture, but the dude who's selling it says they picked it up... weird.

How can a thing like that swim?
If u look at it, it looks soooo aerodinamic :b

It's funny how this fish has k9s. Only land animals have k9s to bite on the neck of their prey and suffocate them to death. deep water fishes don't need to suffocate their prays.

Its a baboon skull, the creator of this told me himself when I sent him an email asking if he had any more of these wonderful sculptures for sale. He offered me the new sea monster he was just finishing making but sadly I couldnt afford the $900 it cost!
And.............. instead of ripping him apart and calling him a fraud why not praise this mans talent! So he adds a bit of a fantasy story to his sculptures to make it a bit more exciting for the buyer. So what? Anyone with a brain in their head can see for themselves that this thing isnt a real fish and if it was real it would have been taken in for examination by marine biologists, c'mon people give the guy a break!
eric cartman
why would it be washed up standing straight up & not on it's side? screw you guys, I'M GOIN' HOME!
oromis
this guy is an artist, its just a sculpture, he sometimes sells them, the story is just a cover up
arun
good story. decent picture. but if you look closely you can see some sort of wheel coming out of it between the tail and head.

hello, i believe in most things, i believe in dragons i believe in fairies,unicorns,chupacabra,yeti,ghosts..ect..ect...ect... and im hear to say that that is not real, not only because i read later on about the hoax but at firstglance even i knew that it was fake, for example;
A.)the body does look like it is parts of various animals(not including the teeth)that look like they would include, sealion,a dog, fish fins...
B.)The teeth, the teeth are something way different, they are mammal teeth i saw on another page a closer look at the teeth and it appears to have large k9s in the front and grinding teeth in back, i do have to say it would be possible for an animal like this to exist(such as the still alive, but very rare angler fish)
because mammals do in fact live in the sea(whales..duh..). but, i have scaned through every living and extinct animals that would have teeth like that, i found that they could be from a large gorrila or baboon(sorry if im missspelling words)they could not be the teeth of a large cat(Tiger, lion...ect..), but, it is possible that it is the teeth of a prehistoric cat called the sabre tooth cat, wich did have teeth that large and thier skulls were huge and they were slightly larger than modernday large cats(body wise), this person did not phtot shop this picture, they did infact put it together by hand, which makes one wonder if they killed the animals them selves, if they did , depending on which state they live in, they would be convicted of animal slaughter, animal cruelty, and also slaughter of an soon to be (or already)endangered animal.
