""It's a real fish, a rass..."

Not that it's that relevant, but I believe that is normally spelled "wrasse." Wrasses are fairly common in these waters. Cool mermaid anyway. Sort of.

"It's a real fish, a rass, the head is modelled from papier mâché or something, and then the teeth belong to the rass."

If the author didn't know how to spell wrasse, he should have checked before writing the article.

I dunno. Maybe it's spelled differently in Scotland.
