Don't worry, Paul F., it's not a real animal, it's actually a long lost test film of the worst Muppet ever created. It's name was Teephums the ARGHH

For what ita worth, this is a corpse of the fish, animated by AI, that's why the proportions are all weird and it looks extra unsettling. Alive theyre more like beavis than an AI zombie.

Repost-Modernist @streetsbound.bsky.social

Im not wrong. The initial image is indeed a telescopefish carcass, but the animation is absolutely fake. If its not, why is the tail directly behind the head and not at the base of the body?

Repost-Modernist @streetsbound.bsky.social

Yes, again the still image is of a corpse. Do you think this is how the fish looks, with a huge sack dragging under its tail. If you dont see that its AI, and you want to trust Fandom wikis and insta science over your own reasoning, so be it, and I wish you the best.
