Dead mermaid found in the Philippines

I don't know if this is true or not, it was found in Visayas Region,Philippines and caught by fishermen. There is a related tradition of more recent origin, perhaps dating back 1,500 years, which consists of manufacturing fake mermaid carcasses for public display using the body parts of dead monkeys and fish. The photograph you have just seen is one such artifact.
