The sea creature was caught in the port of Windward on the tiny island of Carriacou, a few miles from Grenada.
...
Veteran fisherman Hope McLawrence, 74, who found himself staring into the eyes of the 'alien' creature when he hauled in his nets, admitted he was astounded and baffled.
The foot-long beast had two feet with toes, no fin, a long bone on its back and 'a perfect human nose immediately above its mouth' according to Mr McLawrence
...
The fish is believed to be a frogfish, an ambush predator that can eat almost anything that will fit into their large mouths. This includes other fish as well as crabs and shrimp.

Hillary evolved into something merely loathsome, instead of completely disgusting.

Reminds me of the joke we used to play on bootcamps when our ship was out at night:

Amazing. The find a potentially “alien” creature, and even in today’s world, nobody has a device that can take a clear picture.
