Strange New Species Discovered In Deep Oceans
Have you ever heard the saying “we know more about what is in our moon than we do about what is in our oceans?” While this statement might seem a little unlikely, it is actually not too far from the truth. Currently, we have only explored roughly 15% of our oceans with almost all of this exploration being done in the first 1/2 mile of the surface. We really have no clear idea of all of the lifeforms that inhabit the far depths. In the past the only way we even had any idea of any lifeforms being at these depths would be when deep sea fishing lines would snag a specimen or a dead one would wash up on a shoreline. Perhaps the best example of this is the gigantic squid. Stories of this monster go back centuries but the only time we would ever see one would be when a carcass would wash up on a beach or the remains of one would be found in the belly of a sperm whale. And then you have the case of the coelacanth, a fish that was supposedly extinct for 65 million years until one was caught in 1938. Since then, the fish has been caught numerous times
