Dolphin-Human Hybrid found. Are Mermaids Real?

A Dolphin-Human hybrid was found in Iran by two tourists. At the begining they thought it was just a seal or even a dolphin, but then it revealed human-like arms.
Scientists studied the video footage and came to the conclusion it was a human-dolphin hybrid.
So this is bringing once again the Age Old question: Are mermaids real?
" If mermaids are real they are either conspiring against Humanity or are living in fear of us" , said an Iranian scientist. "They seem to be hiding on the waters and never revealing themselves to us, why do they want their existence to be kept secret?" added the same scientist, during an interview.
This could be the begining of something revolutionary, are we on the eve of some First contact with another inteligent species, and, surprisingly, on our own planet?
