With the "strange" appearance, blobfish are a measure of the standard of evil.

Learn about the ugliest fish in the world

According to you, which fish is voted the ugliest planet? The main answer is blobfish (also called water drop fish) - a fish voted by the Ugly Animal Preservation Society . the standard of evil.

So what does this fish have? Let's see the worst fish on the planet through the following article.

Blobfish has the scientific name Psychrolutes marcidus . They have milky white skin or pink skin, but the body is always swollen, the "puffed" face, sagging, always looking sad.

This fish was first found in the waters of New Zealand and Australia, at depths from 600 to 1,200m. These are also places with 118 times higher pressure than the sea surface.

Unlike most other fish, the blobfish has no water bubble - the part that allows the fish to swim and swim.

Because of such depth, the pressure of the water will make the fish bubble useless. Instead, blobfish are made of pasty gelatin blocks of less density than water, which helps them float below the ocean floor.

This fish is unique in that they do not own any muscle tissue . They live in a place where there is little food so blobfish has a somewhat . idle prey.

Blobfish floated in the water, waiting for the prey to pass through (usually crabs, sea urchins, shellfish .) and then opened their mouths to swallow their prey. According to scientists, this method of hunting helps them to save energy to the maximum extent.

So far, the reproductive process of Blobfish remains a mystery to scientists. All that science knows is that children will lay thousands of small eggs right at the bottom of the ocean, then either themselves or their partners will sit eggs until the eggs hatch.

This is considered to be the most feasible way to protect eggs, when the surroundings do not have any plants, or caves as shelter.

Although they are inedible, they live in the same area as crabs, lobsters and other fish. As a result, blobfish are caught in nets with other species and often die in nets before they can be released to the ocean. Therefore, blobfish are currently facing extinction.

Marine experts, Professor Callum Roberts from the University of York (UK), said: ' Blobfish is very vulnerable to catching nets and according to what we know, this fish only lives in a limited area. The fishing fleets in Australia and New Zealand are very active while blobfish are slow fish, so they are very vulnerable to fishing. '

Currently, scientists do not know exactly the number of wild blobfish, but it is estimated to be very small. The picture above is one of the rarest pictures of this fish in their natural habitat.
