She said she caught the strange leaffish when the couple was canoeing and fishing on Lake Champlain.

“When the fish took the bait, I felt like I caught a big fish. But when I pulled it onto the boat, I couldn’t believe my eyes. It’s a fish with two mouths and is still alive and well ,” Ms. Geddes shared.

Geddes asked her husband to take a few photos with the strange baby and then quickly released it into the lake. This photo was shared by colleague Adam Facteau and quickly “caused a storm” on social networks. There is a lot of speculation about this special fish.

“ Is it possible that it has a birth defect or a genetic mutation due to environmental pollution? Lake Champlain is originally a discharge area from Canada and Vermont,” a netizen commented. Meanwhile, Ms. Geddes believes that the salmon’s second mouth may have been created from an old wound when it bit the previous hook.

Although it looks very strange, this is not a monster. The fact that the salmon has two mouths has confused many people, and speculation is because for a long time, Lake Champlain was said to have its own sea monster, nicknamed Champ, similar to the Loch Ness Monster.

Some tourists claimed to have seen Champ since the 1800s. Even the diary of explorer Samuel de Champlain in 1609 mentioned a large and unusual creature with “rows of sharp, dangerous teeth”. dangerous”.

Lake Champlain is located between the states of New York and Vermont
