Carp with Markings on Its Face That Make It Look Like a Human

A carp with markings on its face that make it look like a human has left social media users stunned.

The fish was filmed in a lake by a visitor to a village outside the city of Kunming in the south of China.

Footage shows the animal poking its head just above the surface of the water at the lake's edge.

On its face can be seen two black dots resembling eyes, two vertical stripes resembling the sides of a nose, and a horizontal line resembling a mouth.

The woman filming can be heard saying: "The fish has turned into a fairy."

Users of Weibo have been left amazed by the clip.

"This is scary," wrote one.

"Who dares to eat it?" asked another.

In 2016, another carp with a "human face" caused a stir after being captured in Wugang City in the Hunan province in central China.

The fish was caught by primary school teacher Qiu Xiaohua, who said he had never seen anything like it in 20 years of fishing.

He had been planning to eat the fish, but instead opted to keep it in his home.

Chinese collectors in particular are known to pay big money for unique and rare animals and plants.

In 2010, a carp with a "human face" captured by 44-year-old Essex butcher Brendan O'Sullivan was valued at £40,000.
