A shark with a less-than-ferocious mien was caught by marine biologists tagging and surveying sea life off the coast of Scotland.

The creature with the homely features is a false catshark (Psuedotrakias microdon), Dailymail reports. It's about 6 feet long and 132 pounds and was caught off the Isle of Barra.

Its lumpy look when lying still drove scientists to nickname it "sofa shark," as if the fish did not already have ample cause to harbor self-esteem issues.


Yes, it was returned to the Sea.
