Blobfish may look miserable, surprisingly it holds the title of the ‘World’s Ugliest Animal’. Maybe, because of the crushing pressure of its deep habitat, its body doesn’t really need much muscle. For this reason for survival, it hangs out right above the ocean floor, moving its mouth to catch its food. Also, its diet consists mainly of molluscs and crabs that cross its path.

Known in 1939, this fish was only filmed alive in the California abyss🌊 in 2004. The Pacific Barreye has a transparent skull. Its eyes are not those holes near its mouth (its nostrils👃), but the two green balls👽. you can't take it to the surface because its skull is too sensitive to pressure and it could explode.💥
