Hi everyone, I did a quick search but didn't see anything on this. I found this on The Museum of Hoaxes website. Although it is fake, it looks really good, and if you see this picture popping up elsewhere, with people asking and speculating over it, you can confirm that it is infact a taxidermical creation!

Apparently it was going to be sold on Ebay, but Ebay put a stop to it. It would have been kind of a cool thing to own, not something you'd see in everyone's household, that's for sure!

Here is the link, to the article.

Nah, I don't think it's that old. I think it was a good long thread full of cheap, fun nonsense. thumbsup.gif

That is a pretty nifty concotion. Did a taxidermist have too much time on his hands or something?

Baboon's head on the body of a triggerfish.

Case Closed on this one.

Looking at the canines, you're probably right....

Well if it wasn't stinky, I'd buy it. I'd hang it in my office at work and swear to the heavens that I caught it flying around my backyard. Or that my dog brought it to me... laugh.gif

If people believe me then..... ohmy.gif
