A fisherman has found a “dragon”-like fish off the coast of Tromsø in Norway, adding to the collection of weird creatures he has pulled from the depths. Roman Fedortsov, who works on commercial trawlers, was fishing in the Norwegian Sea when he came across the unusual-looking creature.

He snapped a photograph of the fish, which appears light pink in color, with large eyes, wing shapes on the body, and a long tail. Sharing the picture on Instagram with his 646,000 followers, Roman wrote: “Just a quote ‘It’s one thing to chase something nameless, but quite another thing to find it’ – G.F. Lovecraft.” The post racked up more than 22,000 likes, with users baffled by the bizarre-looking beast.
