The Alien Fish from New Jersey

A fisherman took out from the waters of New Jersey this strange creature rather disturbing. This huge disgusting mouth is reminiscent of many horror movies.
This photo is the buzzing these days on the Internet, and raises many comments: have landed the extraterrestrials ? Are there Aliens among us? These monsters from outer space are they going to invade Earth and to eat us, making mankind disappear??? …
Is it the END OF THE WORLD??? …
Well, no, this is an absolutely earthly creature: lamprey. This cyclostome fish (at the mouth in a circle) is a kind of parasite. It uses its funnel-like sucking mouth to be fixed on other fish, and its teeth to pierce their skin.
Then he sucks their flesh and vital fluids. Just like tax collectors, the only real aliens living on this planet!
