A Chinese fisherman was left puzzled after he netted a fish that looked like a terrifying creature out of a horror movie.
A fisherman in south-east China was shocked when he caught a rare fish with razor sharp teeth
According to local media reports, Mr Leung was working on the West River in Guangdong Province when he caught a monster fish that looks similar to a garfish or a paddlefish.
Recalling the day he first saw the bizzare animal Mr Leung said: “I suddenly felt my net become really heavy and then I saw the large fish. It had a slender head and its whole body looked black with a white belly.”

The 76cm fish has two full rows of shark fangs and crocodile-like occlusion. Unsure of the fish’s origin and Mr Leung, who has been working as a fisherman for more than two decades, didn’t dare to eat it.
The unusual fish has been temporarily placed in a fish tank in a local restaurant for visitors and tourists to wonder. Wildlife experts believe the fish is most likely an alligator gar or paddlefish.
