A frightening set of teeth.

He has a very strong resemblance to certain Australian politicians that I can think of - and equally on the nose I dare say!   ;D ;D ;D

I am assuming this is an Angler fish, in which case this is a female.  The males are basically tiny floating sperm sacks, and quite possibly have the worst life cycle for any male species on Earth.  I'd rather be a male Mantis.

In German it is Seeteufel which translates to sea devil ;-)

Well, they attach to female permanently, might be an easy life?

She - being a lady - might benefit from skin smoothing :)
