This is the Blobfish, *Fish Swims* *Fish Sits Still*. Today is a rare spectacular day, we have witnessed the most ugliest or could be the cutest fish we could have ever seen. This species of fish might have been the greatest discovery ever know to have been found in the world to this day. Viewers might think that this fish could have just been a great waste of time, but could it just be the greatest or more than likely the longest lasting species of dinosaurs to have ever lived through the big bang. So today we will explore the ever lasting dinosaur the Blobfish. Blobfish, this magnificent creature could be one of the oldest species of fish. Without the technology of this eras time the scientist would could have never discovered the past of
this creature. Today we have many new sightings of different type of blobfish floating in the ocean, since this type of fish is going extinct we have almost all type of blobfish in life preserver center to protect the species.
Dally you should not even think about killing yourself it will not solve anything and will only make thing worse for everybody who cares about you. I know that you will not believe this and think that the world is horrible and is not worth living in but I promise you that there is still good in the world. I know that you will say that there is not and that I am naive, but I was not the only one to see this even Johnny saw it as he was dieing. He wanted me to try to point this out to you but I knew that you would need more than just me and Johnny's persuasion so I got word from all of the gang and some idea of how to make things better.
Acanthostega had a fish-like tail and gills for breathing under water, this being the aquatic part of it. But at the ends of the arms were “peddle-shaped” appendages, thought to be the first “hands” on Earth. Clack’s discovery proved that some fish had arms and legs in the water. It showed that arms and legs were already evolved before organisms started actually living on land, they were used more for survival than walking. In a sense, the “blueprints” of an arm were already in place.
In the early 1800’s, a new discovery that left paleontologists in awe was the fossil finding of the immeasurable amount of species of reptiles, Ichthyosaurs. Greek for “fish lizards”, these fossils were found all over the world. Because these large aquatic reptiles migrated just as whales do today, paleontologists have had the amazing advantage of collecting fascinating bone fragments throughout the past 177 years. Ichthyosaurs swam the ocean life from about 245 million until about 90 million years ago- approximately the same time dinosaurs ruled the land. The earliest Ichthyosaur fossil findings were in parts of Canada, China, Japan, and possibly Thailand. Countless fossils came from coatings of limestone produced out of the ocean-floor ooze that was predominantly superior at preserving very well facts of the creatures it digested (Perkins 2).
Before tetrapods existed, all vertebrates were confined to living in aquatic habitats. The only animals that lived on land were arthropods. Through natural adaptations, the fish developed into amphibians. This colossal stage of change made necessary the evolution of new ways of breathing, locomotion, and reproduction. Paleontologists needed to understand how this transition took place. If the changes in anatomy of the fish developed on land, then they served the same purposes they serve today, such as walking. But what advantages would those same body parts give to the aquatic creatures still living in water? This is one of the questions the scientists are asking themselves. There have been a few hypotheses on this matter. The most recent one states that the transformations of the aquatic creatures happened underwater in order to help them survive. This time period is very difficult to study because there is a very small amount of fossils preserved. A...
The origin of modern day whales, a mystery that has puzzled paleontologists for years, may have just been solved with the discovery of an ankle bone. This discovery might sound simple and unimportant, but the bones of these ancient animals hold many unanswered questions and provide solid proof of origin and behavior. The relationship between whales and other animals has proven to be difficult because whales are warm-blooded, like humans, yet they live in the sea. The fact that they are warm-blooded suggests that they are related to some type of land animal. However, the questions of exactly which animal, and how whales evolved from land to water, have remained unanswered until now.
The blobfish is a very rare and interesting-looking fish that lives on the bottom of the ocean. It has very little muscle and a soft skeletal structure that helps it live under the pressure of the ocean water. The blobfish is part of the Psychrolutidae family, which comes from the Greek word meaning 'to have a cold bath. ' This is fitting for the blobfish, because it lives deep in the ocean where it 's far from the sun 's warmth.
classified as a weird discovery. Let’s dive into the past. How long has it been since it ruled land making animals quake with fear?Where was this monstrous reptile found? What was Titanoboa?
The giant oarfish has a number of characteristics which makes it unusual. One fact is that it is the longest bony fish alive today- up to 36 feet long (11 meters). A second fact is that, since it sometimes floats on the surface of the ocean when it is sick or dying, it may be the source of the idea of sea monsters. A third fact is the entire taxonomic family to which the oarfish belongs consists of only four living species.
Nature is amazing. People are discovering new creatures every day. Some of things that people discover are mind-boggling. A group of fishermen recently caught a monkfish. These fish come from the coast of Gibraltar. They can be found at the bottom of the seafloor. These monkfish have huge feet, and they hide until they find prey to catch.
In the year of 1868, a photograph was published in Harper’s Weekly of an animal identified as the basking shark. Before the identity of the animal was known, scientists examined decomposed parts of the fish, which “lead to the assumption that it was a sea monster with legs” (Source A). Although the image was created using parts of the fish, it is not a credible photograph, and certainly not enough evidence to declare the creature as a sea monster. But still, the image was published as a sea monster and later published as a basking shark. This proves that the image of the basking shark was not valid and that the images of other sea monsters are not valid either. Furthermore, in 1848, a serpent sea monster by the name of Chessie, who supposedly lives in the Chesapeake Bay, was sighted. Photographs of the sea monster have been recorded, however, “none of these has been clear enough to be accepted as proof of the monster” (Source C). With no clear photographs, the existence of sea monsters cannot be proved. Correspondingly, if the images were sufficient, they alone are not enough evidence to prove the existence of sea monsters because with modern technology, the images of Chessie could have very easily been photoshopped to depict a sea monster. With no valid photographs depicting a sea monster, it is evident that they are creatures of our
We absolutely astounded you with our first selections of 25 rare sea creatures in parts one through three, and you have come back seeking more mind-blowing discoveries! We have finally returned with our final part four, bringing you the top nine most incredible species of sea creatures that you never knew existed!
And, by the the end of the decade, mini - submarines were being used for the first time to explore the depths of the Loch using sophisticated sonar equipment. New public interest was generated in the mid 1970s when underwater photographs of what appeared to be a “flipper” were made public. To this day there is no conclusive proof that tells us that the monster is a reality. However, many respectable and responsible observers have been utterly convinced they have seen a huge water creature. Prehistoric animal? Elaborate hoax? Seismic activity? A simple trick of light? It’s even been said that the whole mystery could be explained by the presence of circus elephants in the area in the
When you think of a fish, you probably think of a flat, scaly creature with two beady eyes on each side of its head, right? Well, there is a fish that looks nothing like that, but rather looks like a big blob of Jello. We have all been to the zoo or an aquarium and seen all the different types of fish, but this one isn’t in zoos or aquariums. When you see a picture of a Blobfish, it looks like a blob, (hence the name), but most people misinterpret that appearance, because it doesn’t really look like that at all. In its natural habitat, it looks just like a regular fish.
Cartilaginous and bony fishes were abundant. Large fishes and marine reptiles were common; the largest bony fish ever to live existed at this time called the Leedsichthys, coming in at a mindboggling size. Estimates of the size of this fish range from 20 to 27 meters and mass from 20 to 50 tons (Owen). This species is the largest bony fish ever to have ever existed and swam in what is now near England. Jurassic pliosaurs are some of the largest carnivorous reptiles ever discovered, even rivaling Tyrannosaurus which lived during the Cretaceous Period, although the pliosaurs was not a dinosaur but distant cousins of modern turtles ranging from 4 to 15 meters. The ichthyosaurs were at their height, sharing the oceans with the plesiosaurs, huge marine reptiles covering the globe.
