This is a video of paleontologist Danielle Dufault of Animalogic discussing the unique physiology of the red-lipped batfish. Not to be confused with a batman, this multi-species named mutant has a beard, bioluminescent horn, and little front leg-fins it uses to walk along the bottom of the seafloor. See? Nothing

This is a video of two felines being exposed to canned Surströmming — lightly salted, fermented Baltic Sea herring that’s considered a Swedish delicacy. Most people consider it unbearable, and the smell alone often incites gag reflexes. Fermented fish will generally do that to people. I’ve always wants to try

Presumably to give Gatorade a run for its money with Tunade (“Replenishes vital Omega-3’s after heavy thinking!”), culinary adventurer and Youtuber Ordinary Sausage decided to attempt carbonating tuna fish with a Philips soda maker. Yum! He says it tastes like sour tuna fish, which I believe. It also turned out

Seen here looking like something a child would produce if you asked them to draw a nightmare, this is a video of a rarely seen humpback anglerfish (Melanocetus johnsonii) spotted in shallow waters off Spain’s Canary Islands. The fish typically lives some 1,500m (~1 mile) deep in the pitch-blackness, but

This is a video of a striated frogfish (which looks like a character from Adventure Time) displaying its lure, a sort of natural fishing pole that can be extended from its “nose” and wiggle a very convincing worm-like appendage in front of it’s mouth to attract prey. Evolution is nuts.

Because nature is totally nuts, this is a video of a robotic spy fish infiltrating a millions-strong shoal of herring while they look for a place to lay and fertilize their eggs. The real fish constantly release flatulence from their swim bladders that sounds like clicking underwater, a behavior our

This is a visual comparison of increasingly larger fish, from the diminutive 1cm Paedocypris progenetica to the 30m blue whale. The video begins using a grasshopper for scale before moving to a bunny, and finally, humans. There are some big fish out there! Me? I’m neither the smallest nor the

Because nature is a trip, this is a video captured by SCUBA instructor Frida Yolotzin of a young rainbow tripod fish in the waters of Cozumel. After maturity, the fish relocates to the abyssal zone of the deep sea at depths of 0.5 – 3 miles, where it will be
