Deep Sea Creature Pics (new)

Penetrating Deep Oceans
Larry O'Hanlon

The deep sea seems almost to belong to another planet. Bizarre, little understood creatures live there in perpetual darkness and under mountainous pressures — vampire squids, sawtooth eels, sea spiders. They and many others have largely eluded science or appear for a tantalizing moment before the headlamps of submersibles only to vanish again.
Despite decades of exploration, less than a tenth of the deep ocean realm has been explored, despite it being the largest habitat for life on Earth. There are a lot of sea monsters yet to be discovered.
