Our friends over at Oceana have a really cool new section of their website titled Creature Corner where they feature creatures of the deep in a searchable online encyclopedia, with content from the world’s leading family reference publisher, Dorling Kindersley.
The ocean is home to thousands of species, from the familiar to the bizarre and now you can learn about eachand every one!
We took a peek and thought we’d share one we’d never heard of: the Hairy Angler. 
These bizzare looking fish live in the ocean’s depths all the way down to 5000 feet!
They have a very large mouth, tiny eyes and are covered in sensory hairs, giving them a disheveled appearance. Like most anglerfish, it has a movable ‘lure’ on top of it’s head that is formed from the first spine of the dorsal fin which is used to attract prey to it’s reach.
