this one?

YES! thank u my imaging must be going silly ^^

wow, thats weird, they look like human teeth

I think it shoud be a rotten/fried sheepshead fish, but I'm not sure, but its surely utterly strange... "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy"

Ugh...that was a graphic picture to sip my morning coffee to.

Human teeth are designed for an omnivorous diet; Blunt, chisel-like teeth in front for nipping vegetation, sharp canines for tearing meat, and flat molars for grinding. I suspect this fish is much the same, and the "human-like" teeth are just for scraping algae as food, or nipping off sea plants.

See the teeth on this puffer fish?

They're not teeth in the traditional sense since they're joined together; They're sort of like plates. If you could see from the side, you'd see that the front teeth slope down, just like the "human teeth" fish. The pufferfish uses these unique teeth to pull algae off of rocks. I think it's safe to say that that's what this fish does as well.

Um.

Ew.

But cool. Weird, very weird. And I have to agree with AC, that was a bit gross, but luckily I'd already had my morning coffee....

Thats really weird AND gross!

How did you find this picture?

or crushing shellfish...Could be a rotten sheapshead.

Me founds it on gooooooggglllleeee lol tis amazing what ya can find it on that thing ^^

That is one disgusting looking image. Ewww. But strange, yes definitely, and I agree with AC on this one, it probably used them to pick off algae to eat.

According to a US fishing site, the sheepshead feed on mollusks, crustaceans (like the fiddler crab) and barnacles.

Hm... What fish would have the same way of eathing like a human?

Nothing I know of...
...I'll ask my brother he's a fish-freak.

You know what's really weird D.?
When fish start talking!!!

WTF

Did you read anything after the first post?

If so, do you need me to explain phonetically?

No fish eat like a human Learn to read.

Why not? Or come over here and tell me right in da face...

D. doesn't like cynical comments...
...his other half does.

now now lets not make this into a fight over how fish eat

Well, that's relevant as the teeth indicates either scrapping of algae or crushing shellfish.

I was saying it to hunter D

That is the cutest thing I have ever seen... kinda like a big cheesy fish grin.. I want one

LMAO! ok we'll all put money in a buy u 1 for christmas lol

Did that fish have molars???!!!! I couldn't tell from the pic, if so, do any other fish possess that trait?

Yes, it has molars, and no, I don't know of any other fish that has such teeths besides the sheepshead.

There crazy teeth Never seen that before

I'll make my own! I'll just get a fishy and ask Nanna if i can borrow her dentures...

Eww...just make sure she doesn't put them back in her mouth!!

I'm sure she won't mind...

I would if it was goin in a fishes mouth lol

Hey fishie, let me see ya "grille".

WTF..

hey people, can we please get back on topic here...

That means can I see your teeth, so it is on topic.

My apologies if I offend....and I also apologize for the future when I will most likely do it again...but yes, back to the topic at hand.

Mabye... they tuck human teeth into it

Teeth of a Sheepshead:







Here's a sheepshead I caught:

Those teeth just look really freaky in that fish's mouth! I know it's real, but it's weird looking! Nature is a strange beast.

And crafty

i don't know about you but i think that fish needs to brush its teeth
