Allright, here's the article: http://english.pravda.ru/science/mysteries/07-02-2007/87167-alien_monster-0
And here's a pic of the sea-creature:

How stupid can you get to eat something with such a high scientific value? This could've been a very interesting found.

Depends upon how hungry you are...
> This could've been a very interesting found.
Wonder what it tasted like.

"""However, ufologists and scientists were greatly disappointed when they found out that the fishermen had eaten the monster. They said that they were not scared of the creature so they decided to use it as food. One of the men said that it was the most delicious dish he had ever eaten."""
Apparently, if we ever get attacked by alien fish, we can just eat them....!?

I'd say the picture shows the underside of a Shovelnose Ray:

Or it could be a hoax.
That link is from Pravda, and those Russians... it wouldn't be the first time they got loaded on vodka and made up a juicy internet story. 
That fish doesn't look too much like a ray to me. Come to think of it, it looks a little like my sister when she gets up in the morning.
