Fish in China with Human Face

Genetic anomaly or caused by extreme pollution?

That’s what they get for messing around with dna over there like it’s some kind of toy.

I'm not sure that's a face. I think you can see the eyes where fish eyes are supposed to be. Looks more like the coloring of the fish makes it appear to have a human face.

It probably has human feelings too and knows it’s a fish chimera doomed to swimming in filthy water until it dies, never able to communicate its thoughts or feelings with man or fish.

R5, isn’t that the plot to the little mermaid?

I mean no disrespect to the fish, but it looks like Eartha Kitt.

R3, From CRISPR Wikipedia page: "In the future, CRISPR gene editing could be used to create new species or revive extinct species from closely related ones."

I have worked at Oak Ridge.

R13, Oak Ridge Nation Lab linked. Exactly what did you and your colleagues work on at ORNL.

OP, my comment was to explain that I had no need for a link to Wikipedia defining CRISPR.

I saw Blue Planet, coarl reefs today. Clown fish looked for various objects to stick under the sea aneome to protect it's eggs. The fish worked together bumping their bodies to move a coconut shell.

Their little fish brains are smarter than we know. Think about that the next time you see fish stuck in a tank which nothing challenging to do. They need a sea full of possibilities to stimulate them.

Even the face of the Grouper fish looked eerily similar to human features. The eyes and lips. One can see how Darwin and others came up with evolution.

Furthermore I can't imagine what it must be like to cum at the sight or chemical detection of eggs. There is no way those fish are thinking it's time to plan a family. They are biological and sexually stimulated to ejaculate ON TO EGGS. That is just weird. "Hhhggn eggs, ugggh err"

R15, I know. I linked your post as I did for R13 since I thought that other posters might want to know what you were referencing. Otherwise the Wiki entry might seem random, right?

What R12 said.

by Anonymousreply 19November 10, 2019 6:15 AM

R13 what did you do at Oak ridge? The fish looks that way because of the water, pollution, and camera the picture was taken with. It looks more like some ancient mask than human.

I know the Chinese harvest organs, change DNA, etc. This is not good.

They do cruel things over there like inject glass fish with toxic neon dye so they can sell more of them to clueless Fraus and their evil spawn. Of course they dont live long after you get them home. Then its back to the store for more until the light bulb goes off that maybe its because the full of toxic paint.

They also genetically modified fish to glow in the dark. They are even trademarked.

R24 Are they fluorescent colored, or bioluminescent, or both? They are kind of pretty.

This is a glowing fish:

Fish are actually very smart, a lot more than people know about from their childhood understanding. This one can build a house in perfect mathematical symmetry including decoration.

That's a fish all right, it's footage from the Bellagio of Poo Shoes coming up for air from the toilet stall that fateful night.

Those are just its markings/color. Reminds me of the “Montauk Monster”, supposedly an escapee from Plum Island yada yada.

They are just now really discovering how smart fish are. Anyone who has owned fish for a period of time knows this. They have individual personalities just like dogs and cats. I had a saltwater tank for years and I can tell you that some breeds were so smart they would do tricks I didn't teach them just to get my attention, know when it was time for food, eat out of a specific spot I would place the food, and even fallow me around the room like a dog watching it's owner.

Some breeds can live a long time. 20 years for tropical is not uncommon.

Seahorses mate for life. It's called pair bonding and it's quite rare among most of the animal kingdom. Cat's and dogs don't do that. Neither does 50% of the human race for that matter.

Amazon River fish I think R40.
