Russian fishermen catch reptile monster fish, mysterious fossil scales

Fishermen throw nets to catch this strange mutant fish on the North Dvina River , near the Bereznik-Osinovo ferry, Arkhangelsk Oblast, RT on June 25 citing news in the local media.

The mysterious fish is mysterious.

Fishermen cannot determine which fish it belongs to.Its head is like a turtle's head, while scales are like fossils. It also has very sharp, thorny fins and a sucking mouth like fried fish.

Some people think it may be a rabbit fish , but that fish is a sea fish, not a river fish.

Many experts believe that the mysterious fish is a catfish protected by hard bone. But the species often lives in the Amazon River , so they do not understand why it appears in northern Russia.

This is not the first time strange fish appear in Arkhangelsk area. Last year, local fishermen caught a fish with a human-like tooth. Scientists speculate that it is a South American pacu fish - a type of piranha.
