The discovery of the “sad” fish at the bottom of the ocean evaporated in front of scientists

Australian scientists have discovered a new type of fish with very strange faces that are almost permanently sullen or sad, in an appearance that may be described as a natural reaction to the environmental reality of our planet, which can be described as “dream”.
The researchers found two new species of snails after a $100,000 monitor was attached to a trap that sank 6.5 kilometers underwater.
The discovery was made during a research team from the University of Mindero’s Deep Sea Research Center in Western Australia, carrying out a scientific expedition to explore the bottom of the Indian Ocean. The odd-looking fish has a translucent gelatinous body and has a face that is “permanently rigid with a frown”.

The expedition director, Alan Jamieson, told the Sydney Morning Herald that the snail began to molt minutes after it was pulled from 6,500 meters of seabed.
“While the fish are in the trap, they cook (thaw) because they have never reached 25 degrees Celsius in the last 10 million years.”

Once the fish arrives on board, the scientists have less than 20 minutes to preserve it, and the researchers are unable to position and photograph it with several attempts because the fish simply “evaporates before our eyes due to the heat”.

 

According to the article published in “msn”, it may take another two years for the two new species to be scientifically described, as researchers intensify their efforts to explore Australia’s oceans.
“These fish can withstand tremendous pressure similar to an elephant standing on a human thumb and can survive in temperatures of two degrees.
Snail fish is a transparent fish without scales, between 10 and 25 centimeters long. It lives in groups and feeds on small crustaceans and shrimp using the suction method from its mouths to suck the prey.
