The gulper eel looks like something out of science fiction, a strange cross between a snake and a pelican.
5.The Gulper Eel The gulper eel has small, sharp teeth designed for crunching through the shells of crabs, oysters, and other bottom-dwelling species. When they get close enough, the angler fish opens her huge mouth, revealing rows of curved fangs that are inescapable. The angler fish uses this lure on her head to entice unsuspecting prey that swim toward the light. The shape and size of the lure changes with the species, but one thing is consistent. Only the female angler fish has this bioluminescent lure protruding in front of her face. The unique thing about this scary fish is the built-in fishing rod attached to its head. There are many varieties of angler fish, from red fishlike ones to puffy, spongelike creatures. The anglerfish is one of the most interesting species in the deep water of the oceans. 4.The Anglerfish The angler fish opens her huge mouth, revealing rows of curved fangs that are inescapable. He lives so deep in the ocean that water pressure has transformed him into a potato-sized glob of gelatin. The blobfish can’t help but be an ugly fish. He swims just enough to be off the bottom a bit, and he eats whatever drops directly in front of his mouth. He lives in the deep sea off Australia’s coast, at about 4000 ft. Not only is he flabby, this little fish is pretty lazy. This poor little guy is just a mass of gelatinous gunk with a big nose and downward turned mouth. The sad looking blobfish actually won a contest to be named the ugliest fish in the world. 3.The Blobfish BLobfish lives so deep in the ocean that water pressure has transformed him into a potato-sized glob of gelatin. This makes it appear much larger and foreboding than it actually is. The scariest thing about the vampire squid is its defense mechanism of spreading its arms wide to reveal the caped webbing that attaches them. To protect itself, the vampire squid expels bioluminescent bodily fluids that light up the surrounding area. The vampire squid is smaller than its distant relatives, and it often becomes prey for larger predators. It lives in the darkest, deep part of the ocean where it feeds on plants and animal debris from above. This terrifying creature is a cantaloupe sized beast with eight arms and two tentacles. So what is it? Its scientific name is Vampyroteuthis infernalis, which literally translates to vampire squid from hell.
It’s not a squid, and it’s not a vampire. Okay, with a name like vampire squid, you know this creature is scary. 2.The Vampire Squid To protect itself, the vampire squid expels bioluminescent bodily fluids that light up the surrounding area. Even so, before I go swimming in the ocean, I plan to check the shark reports. They are opportunistic feeders that eat other fish, seals, or dolphins. Great whites are among the strongest predators in the oceans. More often it is a case of the shark being blamed for a human being in the wrong place at the wrong time. According to experts, the shark’s food chain does not include humans. Despite all the scare tactics created by clever theatrics, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says the risk of humans being attacked by a great white or any other species of shark is actually very low. Steven Spielberg brought more attention to the big shark’s massive mouth and razor-sharp teeth when he produced the film version of the novel. Among marine mammals, the great white is one of the most commonly known scary fish, thanks to author Peter Benchley’s bestseller, Jaws. There couldn’t be a list of the scariest fish in the ocean without the great white shark being the first to appear.
