This Fish With Human-Like Features Found In Malaysian Waters Is Creeping Dubai Peeps Out!

‘Pucker up’ just got a whole new meaning with this triggerfish coming to light, (2020 sure is one strange year).

Discovered in the Malaysian coral reefs, this bizarre triggerfish has left the internet completely baffled with its eerily human-like features; where the sea creature’s lips and teeth could NOT look more like your next-door neighbour with a plump pout to die for.

NDTV and Rakyat Post were the first to scout the much-tweeted clicks of this pout-iful fish with well-defined lips, and revealed that the sea creature is known as “ayam laut” or “ikan jebong”. Plus, the name ‘trigger’ comes into play because these fish are known for being easily ‘triggered’.

Triggerfish are notorious for being extremely territorial and employing an aggressive behaviour towards intruders (which makes sense… because it’s their territory after all).

Haters will say it’s photoshopped

…But it’s not FYI.

Anyway, these fascinating clicks of the viral fish were shared on July 2, and have since have gained over 14k likes, 8k retweets and a flood of comments where intrigued netizens from around the world, including Dubai, are trying to make something of this unbelievably human-like fish.

Hmmm Akash here could deffo be onto to something!

Move over sis, there is a new pout KA-WEEEN in town
