Are there really mermaids?
No, Mermaids the Body Found is not real and there are no mermaids swimming around at government facilities.
Mermaids the Body Found and Mermaids the New Evidence are both mockumentaries (What is a mockumentary?) produced by Animal Planet.
The scientists that appear in Mermaids the Body Found and Mermaids the New Evidence are actors. The government agencies mentioned in both mockumentaries were not actually involved. It’s all fake.
There has never been any confirmed mermaids on this planet. So that’s that.
