By Lianne Ryan   Forget lookie-likey this is a cookie-likey - the hilarious sea creature which bears and uncanny resemblance to the Cookie Monster.   With its bulging 'eyes', wide mouth and blue appearance - this bizarre looking creature is a dead ringer for the famous Seasame Street character.   But it's doubtful this sea monster will be enjoying its doppelganger's diet of chocolate chip cookies - as the unusually-looking creature is actually a type of sea sponge.   Known as the Stove Pipe Sponge it's found in the Atlantic Ocean, lives on a diet of plankton.   The Stove Pipe sponge takes its name from its usually cylinder shape but it appears this unfortunate organism seems to have morphed into the cookie monster's twin.   The cookie-likey was spotted by photographer Mauricio Handler.   Mauricio said: "I came across this unusual sponge configuration during a shoot on the Western tip of Curacao, Dutch Caribbean.   "It was clear that it was an unusual comical sponge and I was surprised no one had ever photographed it.   "I lit it from top and side to create a more human like appearance and voila."   ENDS
