    The Mysterious Pacific Footballfish

    The Mysterious Pacific Footballfish
    The Pacific footballfish is a large but rarely encountered deep-sea anglerfish known from only 31 specimens recovered worldwide. Strangely, over the course of last year (2021), three footballfish were found washed up on beaches in San Diego and Orange Counties. Scripps scientists aren't quite sure why these rare creatures are suddenly showing up on our beaches, but were lucky enough to collect, preserve and archive one of these unusual animals in Scripps world class oceanographic collections. This specimen, a true oddity, is now on display for a very limited time at Birch Aquarium. To see the footballfish and learn more about it, join us and Scripps Collections Manager, Ben Frable, for a deep dive into the fascinating story of this mysterious fish, where and how it lives, the biology of anglerfishes, and how Scripps scientists are preserving this animal for future research.

    Anglerfish

    Anglerfish

    The animal that Alex is talking about on this episode  lives deep within the total darkness of the ocean. They have extremely unique adaptations, and you would probably get nightmares just looking at them. Even though they have a face only a mother could love, they are also an amazing example of how organisms evolve to fit their environment. So, grab your flashlight because we’re going to a place where no sunlight reaches to talk about anglerfish.
