1 Frilled shark 주름장식 상어♬
This is a frilled shark.
Frilled sharks are found throughout deep waters in the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans.
It is often
described as a “living fossil” because
of its resemblance to extinct,
Paleozoic
sharks. They’re rarely seen alive because of their
preference for deep water.
A dying one was
captured near the surface in Japan in 2007
2 Red cap goldfish... 붉은 모자 금붕어
A red cap goldfish, or
“oranda”. These are characterized by a
prominent hood t! hat covers the head
which let’s face it, look like their brains are on show. Originally from
China, they are popular aquarium pets today.
3 Promachoteuthis sulcus 남 대서양 오징어
Meet Promachoteuthis
sulcus, ! a bizarre creature straight out of your nightmares.
As you can see,
this thing looks like it has freakishly human looking teeth.
They’re actually just flaps of skin, but they’re
still pretty unnerving! It’s a species of promachoteuthid
squid
and only one
specimen has been found to date. It was captured in the Southern Atlantic Ocean
at a depth of 2,000m in 2007.
4 Crocodile Fish 악어 물고기
This is a white-blooded
ice fish, or “crocodile fish”
(Chaenocephalus ac! eratus).
They lack both
red blood cells and hemoglobin, and so have white blood. They have translucent
bodies,
and absorb
oxygen directly from the water around them.
5 Amber phantom butterfly 앰버 유령나비
The amber phantom
butterfly (Haet! era piera), found in the Guianas, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru,
Bolivia and Venezuela.
6 The Pistol Shrimp 권총새우
The pistol shrimp is the
NOISIEST creature in the ocean. Colon! ies of them make a distinct snapping
noise
that
overshadows nearly all other sounds throughout the world’s
oceans,
including the
calls of some whales. In fact, they are so loud, their snapping sounds interfere
with military
and scientific
sonar (so much so, that hostile submarines have used large colonies of pistol
shrimps to hide!).
7 Lion’s Mane Jellyfish 사자갈기 해파리
The Lions Mane Jellyfish
is the larges! t jellyfish in the world.
They have been
swimming in arctic waters since before the dinosaurs
(over 650
million years ago) and are among some of the oldest surviving species in the
world.
The bell can
grow up to 8 feet in diameter with hundreds of tentacles up to 120 feet long.
Remarkably,
only 6% of the
jellyfish is solid matter; the rest is water.
8 Blue footed booby 푸른발 멍청이
Meet the blue footed
booby, found from the Gulf of California d! own along the western coasts of
Central and South America to Peru.
Their bright
blue feet are a sexually selected trait. The brighter a males feet, the more
attractive he is to a female.
To attract a
female, they have an elaborate dancing ritual to display their feet, first
lifting one foot and then the other.
9 The Cardinal Gynandromorph 진홍색 암수모자이크
No, this isn! ’t photoshopped. This is a cardinal “gynandromorph” an animal that exhibits both
female
and male sexual
characteristics. As different sexes are differently coloured, each half of the
bird is a different shade.
10 The Mexican walking fish. 멕시코 걷는물고기
“Walking fish” is a ! pretty general term used to describe any fish that is
able to travel over land.
Ironically, the
Mexican walking fish isn’t a fish at all, but an amphibian.
It’s official name is axolotl and as the name suggests, it’s found in Mexico.

viscera, including the heart, liver, and gastrointestinal tract are all
completely visible.
13 Yeti crab 서린게
This is the yeti crab
(Kiwa hirsuta). Only discovered in 2005, the yeti crab lives in the South P!
acific Ocean and
grows to around
15cm long. Discovered at a depth of 2,200 metres (7,200 ft),
it lives on
hydrothermal vents. Based on both morphology and molecular data, the organism
was deemed to form
a new biological
family, which was named Kiwaidae. A second species in the family was described
in 2011.
The “hairy” claws of the yeti crab contain
filamentous bacteria, which the creature may use to convert carbon
molecules
emitted by the hydrothermal vents into nutrients. This is a process known as
chemosynthesis.
It may also
consume bacteria.
14 Alarm jellyfish 경보 해파리
This is the alarm
jellyfish (Atolla Wyvillei) and it has a rather unique ! defence mechanism.
When the alarm
jellyfish is attacked, it flashes brightly using bioluminescence in an attempt
to attract other animals.
The idea is to
encourage confusion and fights between predators, while the jellyfish can swim
away.
15 Nembrotha cristata 바다 민달팽이
This is Nembrotha
cristata, a colourful sea-slug found in! the tropical Indo-West Pacific Ocean.
They grow to
about 50mm in length and have black bodies with a strange luminous green “trim”.
Like most
nudibranchs, they deliver a painful sting. They do not produce the stinging
cells themselves
but incorporate
them into their own tissues from their prey, stinging
jellyfish.
16 Leatherback Sea Turtle 장수 바다거북
The Leatherback Sea
Turtle is the lar! gest turtle in the world, weighing approximately 900kg.
Contrary to appearance,
the leatherback
doesn’t actually have a shell. What looks like a shell is
in fact a leathery skin supported
by small bones.
This gives it a flexibility that a solid shell would not provide, allowing it to
dive to astonishing depths.
