Early fishermen and sailors often told tales of seeing strange beasts during their long trips at sea. Famed among these fabled sightings, was talk of the man faced fish that trapped food in with his long natural mustache whiskers.
It was originally called a "BRISTLY FISH", but in 1673 the French oceanongrapher REMY LA AQUAVELVA named this fish the "poissons de moustache". Modern fish nomenclature tells us that its uncommon for a fish to have facial .hair. But this is indeed a rare fish.
Indeed a most bountiful moustache of the deep.

I'm enjoying the lighting in the background and on the fish-a-puss. This entry, specifically, makes me want to see you do a book themed around mustache art, Pedro. You already wrote an entertaining entry for this one...
yeah...If you put a mustache on any animal it automatically becomes a little more awesome...
