This was a pity, reported Daily News, because a man who is a kamnan and who runs a fisheries' institute wanted to have it stuffed and put on display for educational purposes. 

Maybe he can stuff Prasert instead and hang him on the wall of his institute with a brass plaque reading: "The Man Who Caught the Fish with a Face Like a Human -- and Got Stuffed on It"

What breed is it>?

 

Taken from the article (link) below, about the Stargazer fish:

 

"It has a unique texture and flavor. The slightly chewy texture and mild flavor with a slight sweetness has made it very popular and earned it the nickname "poor man's lobster."

Abdol-areet Lekkun was willing to pay good money for the creature but it ended up in the stomach of the fishermen instead as part of a merit making exercise. 

 

Several Thaivisa posters on the original story had pooh-poohed suggestions that the Thais would not eat the fish.

 

And so it proved. 

 

... but it ended up in the stomach of the fishermen instead as part of a merit making exercise ...

They're damn fast these thai fishermen ... they like to make merit all the time ... they can pooh pooh suggestions as much as they like , does not change anything ... 55
