The bizarre fish has skin and blood connected when intense

Not just behavior

Not only the odd "relationship" behavior, strange sea creatures also have self-transgender mechanism when they cannot find a connected object. In particular, male fish will be transgender into females when they cannot find a mate.

There are strange sea creatures living very deep in the ocean, people have very few opportunities to know. One of them is Caulophryne jordani fish, otherwise known as one of the ugliest fish in the world.

Caulophryne jordani fish has a strange appearance, impressed by a "need" that grows from the top, can emit light, attracting prey.

Fish Caulophryne jordani has a strange appearance.

Although many times the image of Caulophryne jordani was recorded, scientists could not find the male Caulophryne jordani, nor was it lucky to capture the "love" image of this fish.

Recently, the video was recorded by two explorers Kirsten and Joachim Jakobsen at a depth of 800 meters at the bottom of the sea published, shedding light on the problem.

It is difficult for scientists to see images of Caulophryne jordani males and "love", because the Caulophryne jordani is extremely small, only 6.35 mm in size, 500,000 times smaller than fish what.

When having sex, the male fish will bite into the female's body, the skin and blood are fully in contact with each other. Males also secrete an enzyme that penetrates the skin and mixes into females, at which point male sperm can enter the female body.

After sex, male fish completely lost digestive system, so continue to live parasites on female body.

When having sex, the male fish will bite into the female's body, the skin and blood are fully in contact with each other.

However, male fish cannot just eat on beans without doing anything. In order to be able to parasitize females, male fish are required to meet their "relationship" needs at any time.

Over time, every part of the male body is dissipated, only the testicles remain. Finally, the male was completely exhausted and died, leaving a sufficient amount of sperm to fertilize the children. It is known that a female can feed up to 6 male fish on the body.

Another interesting point in this fish is that the males are fully transgender. Don't rush to heal the less fortunate male fish, their task is to find females and associate with females to maintain the race.

However, in an unreasonable environment, unable to find females, male fish will automatically transgender, become mother fish, waiting for the appearance of male fish.
