    He then exclaimed: "I have to look at such features as the shape of the teeth, the jaws, the shape of the gill rakers, as well as counts of the vertebrae [to determine what it is].

    "Now I have no idea what species this is.

      I wanted to see this thing in motion, so I tried to search up the youtube video, but no dice. Every article on it is just copy-pasted from the original on the Express site, and I can’t get the embedded video attached to it to work. I did find an article on NIWA’s site about a species of sea pig, which looks similar.

      People ate referring to the 80s movie “The Thing” where a creature is dug up from under the Antarctic ice, and it turns out to be a shapeshifting carnivore.

      Edit: here you go https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0084787/

      Haven’t seen a horror movie come close to the levels of phycological fear I felt watching it. I remember reading the actors didn’t even know who was who.
