"Looks very prehistoric," wrote one user. "the deep sea is another planet down there. wild looking creatures," added another. 

A third user suggested that it wasn't a real shark at all. "Man made.. either a sculptor or mixing of DNA with the assistance of the crisper," wrote the user. A fourth jokingly commented, "Looks really happy he's just had his braces off so is accentuating the gums and teeth." 

Several other people also commented that the shark appeared to be a "cookie-cutter" shark - a small cigar-shaped shark with a bulbous snout and distinctive lips.

However, speaking to Newsweek, Mr Bermagui stated that the creature is not a cookie-cutter shark. "It's a rough skin shark, also known as a species of endeavour dog shark," he explained. "These sharks are common in depths greater than 600 meters. We catch them in the wintertime usually," the fisherman added.
