The real Mermaid in the Aquarium and Science museum in Liege- Belgium. This to prove that the myth of the Mermaids is not only fairy tales, it does exist but not that beautiful :) 

Watch and wonder.

I will make a fool of myself (again) by posting this - but it will be the last thing honestly -  Sideshow carnivals in Europe and America in the 1800s also featured mermaids, many of them from Japan and the West Indies. The most famous of these mermaids was P.T. Barnum's Feejee Mermaid, which is believed to have been created around 1810 by a Japanese fisherman. The art of creating faux mermaids was perfected by fishermen and often involved stitching the heads and upper bodies of monkeys onto the bodies of fish.

just googled this -Aquarium and Science museum in Liege- Belgium.As predicted - noting there about mermaids on the web or images :-(

Mermaids do NOT HAVE hands, or a human rib cage or a pelvic bone followed by more bones.The 'head' looks wobbly to me. By the way - the head is male - look at the width of the cranium and the pelvic bones are female :-/ Give it up - you have been rumbled :-)

Nomerci, If you would have seen the things that I saw there< you would say; OMG why we don't know about all these things? and believe me, the mermaid is just 1% of what they have.

If this was really a mermaid, don't you think all hell would break loose and the scientists and newspapers would go ballistic?Get real.

People, you all just drop your comments without any arguments. I said, it is mermaid and not a baby, it is one piece and oke, just look this one as well and don't argue without any evidence. [[wysiwyg_imageupload:396:]]

All of them will have a place in heaven I think.Not deeply religious at all - but I hope in some way they are looked after somewhere else - if that makes sense :-)

That is not a Mermaid at all - seen it and spoke to the curator about it. Sorry to the OP.This is a 'doctored' baby that died of a genetic disorder called Harlequins Syndrome. These children are born early, have scales as skin,  have fused legs and an abundance of hair (sometimes)It is a very sad thing to see.If one chose to - google the disorder - although it makes sad viewing.

Nomerci: it is not very old, they do have several examples. But one of them has been allowed to be touched and observed closely for to believe. Brit: I did not wash my hand :)

This is real...saw it with my own eyes and touched it with my hands. She is kind ugly creature, round 80 cm long, has hands, human face. Lot of them in the museum. They say they do live in few places in the oceans.
