Bizarre fish and sea monsters

9:11 am Animals

I was looking at many pictures of fish and I found some way crazy looking fish.  I know these are deep sea fish, but they look like deep sea monsters more than a fish you would eat.  Many of these fish live very, very deep in the sea and do not come up to the surface often. Some of these fish live so deep that there have been very few ever found at all.

I wonder if some of these very deep sea fish are what sea monster stories are based on. This one here is called a fang tooth, sure you can see why

This is a picture of an Oarfish, Oarfish are huge and may be one of the wicked looking fish that sea monster tales are based on

For some more very scary large fish, check out this megamouth shark. Just very wicked looking, the last thing I would ever want to run into in the water. The megamouth looks more menacing than the great white for sure even though the shark is not as big.

I don’t even know what this crazy looking fish is called… way wicked

    Yes these creatures seem so rare, but it’s just like a different world over there. These Sea Creatures need special things to survive in these depths and beauty isn’t one of them.
