Weirdest animal

                            

Inhabiting the deep waters off of Australia these fish are adapted to living at extreme pressures and although they lack a significant amount of muscle it is not really necessary for them as they feed on anything edible that floats past.

Due to its low-density flesh, the blobfish's shape is very different when it is out of water. Its   anthropomorphic and unappealing looks have created much discussion in media outlets.

Blob fish resembles a man with a big nose that a very bad day.

Blobfish are typically shorter than 30 cm (12 in). They live at depths between 600 and 1,200 m (2,000 and 3,900 ft) where the pressure is 60 to 120 times as great as at sea level, which would likely make gas bladders inefficient for maintaining buoyancy.^[1] Instead, the flesh of the blobfish is primarily a gelatinous mass with a density slightly less than water; this allows the fish to float above the sea floor without expending energy on swimming. Its relative lack of muscle is not a disadvantage as it primarily swallows edible matter that floats in front of it such as deep-ocean crustaceans.^[2]

Due to its unique In September 2013 the blobfish was voted the "World's Ugliest Animal", based on     photographs of decompressed specimens, and adopted as the mascot of the Ugly Animal Preservation Society, in an initiative "dedicated to raising the profile of some of Mother Nature’s more aesthetically challenged children"
