Fish discovered with human face
From correspondents in London
January 14, 2005
IF you found this fish staring up at you from a pond, you might do a double take.
Evil eye ... this carp seemingly has a human face / AFP
For the carp's face displays some extraordinarily human features.
Sinister eyes seem to peer out from the head and a broad nose tapers down to the mouth. But, in fact, the nose is just a marking on the carp's skin as are the "eyes" in front of its real eyes. The features belong to two 19-year-old female carp in a pond in Chongju, Korea. And the patterns could make the pair very valuable.
