A mutant shark with a ~human face~ has been found by fishermen in the Indian Ocean, after their trawler net accidentally caught an adult shark with three pups in its stomach. One of the young sharks had a mutation which resulted in its eyes being underneath its head closer to its mouth, instead of either side of its head.
The result? This absolutely fucked nightmare-fuel hellspawn baby shark. Do do do do do do.
Meanwhile, in Indonesia, a local fisherman has been left baffled after catching this baby shark with a ‘human face’ while out in the Indian Ocean. pic.twitter.com/EAKN4CbhIr

Wow, I hate it, but I’m also… Sharkboy is that you? Or maybe your child?
As reported by the Daily Mail (because who else would bring this cursed news to our consciousness in 2021?), Indonesian fisherman Abdullah Nuren made the discovery when he cut open the mother shark. Of the three babies in the womb, there was only this one that had the abnormality.
“I initially found a mother shark caught in the trawler net,’ he said.
“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.”
I feel like somewhere out there, a single finger has curled on a monkey’s paw.
As can be absolutely expected, the internet has reacted to the news with the perfect chain of reaction: curiosity, alarm, and then an unsettling feeling deep in their souls like this is just another bad omen from the depths of the earth.

I just cannot. No. Put that thing back where it came from, or so help me. Back from whence you came, you cursed thing. I know you didn’t ask to be born with a face that cooked but also please leave immediately and never return.
The only way I have found that I can look at the fucked-up shark face is by thinking about it this way.
Hang on, the shark with a human face is clearly just Mr Burns in the woods. pic.twitter.com/XzGPEkbkWa

It’s just Mr Burns after his daily spinal adjustment, eye drops, pain killers, and vocal chod scraping. And then instead of wandering loftily through the woods like an alien, he’s having a little swim in the ocean and got gobbled up by a big shark, like Jonah and the Whale.
Anyway, I’m sure this isn’t anything to worry about, right?
