A Glass Squid - photograph from a deep sea survey

[Revhed]

Scientists found the squid and other species while mapping more than 1,500 square miles (3,900 square kilometers) of an undersea mountain range in the North Atlantic.

Until now the region had scarcely been explored because of its remoteness and depth. But the new survey shows that the ridge is teeming with life

It needs a cutesy name, like Nemo or Crush

I wonder what would happen if that viper fish popped the glass squid with one of its fangs. It looks poppable.

You have to wonder what they think of us!
