The creature, a fish with the body of a shark and the face of a pig, looks like some kind of mutant dinosaur. Which it kind of is because once it was pinpointed to be a angular roughshark (Oxynotus centrina), it was realized that the odd-looking fish normally lives up 2,300 feet (700 metres) below the surface.
 

The angular roughshark, also known as, wait for it… a pig-faced shark, is reportedly extremely rare and is listed on the IUCN Red List of Threatened species.
