Strange looking creatures all the same :eek:

Well, I guess I should have done some more reasearch .. :biggrin:
Still, dont stick you hand in there mouths..

I imagine all kinds of sea life was washed up onto beaches, or is laying dead in the ocean. Afterall, that tsunami ripped through more ocean than land :eek:

wonders if a 90g is big enough for the blob fish or the Chimera Pup ?
:biggrin:

I think it did way more damage to land, the sea creature are made to deal with storms hurricanes and all sorts of things, Im sure shallow reefs got ripped up but divers were under and never even new what happened so it couldnt have been that bad unless it was close to land.

I wonder if they found anycreatures that have never been found yet?

Researchers find new things everytime they venture farther down. :eek:

I like the Half eel and half fish thing with the eel head :confused:

This thread reminded me of an awsome series produced by the BBC called "The Blue Planet. Seas of Life" It has to be the most comprehensive series ever and it has by far the best footage I've ever seen! One of the segments is called "The Deep" and it was filmed from a deep sea submarine rigged with special lights and camera equipment. It has footage of these things alive; moving around and hunting and stuff (hatchet fish, fang fish, gulper eel, chimera, angler fish ect). I would totally recommend it! I can lend it to anyone who wants.
Other episodes I have are: Open Ocean, Tidal Seas, Coasts, Seasonal Seas, and Coral Seas.

Also, it's narrated by David Attenborogh and has a musical score - guaranteed goosebumps! Four or five DVDs in all I think.
If you'd like I can bring it to the get together and play some of it on Jonathan's big screen! Sweet!

Hey fish i would love to borrom it one day, where did you get it?

It would be a nice background scene/music! :cool:

They were gifts from my sister who has a degree in environmental conservation - a professor in one of her classes showed clips from time to time. I think you may be able to find it at some HMVs or a similar place. Here is a link to some info:

I'll bring it to the party and anyone who wants to borrow it can. I also have checked before and found that the Calgary Public Library has the series.

I have watched them all. They are awesome.
If you can get a hold of them you won't be dissapointed! :cool:

Seems even some of the big names have been fooled by this email...
