World's Weirdest Animals and Creatures.



Such as this thing which looks like it lept from the pages of H.P. Lovecraft:

To remain buoyant, the flesh of the blobfish is primarily a gelatinous mass with a density slightly less than water; this allows the fish to float above the sea floor without expending energy on swimming. The relative lack of muscle is not a disadvantage as it primarily swallows edible matter that floats by in front it.

Due to the inaccessibility of its habitat, it is rarely seen by humans.
(Thank heaven for that, I say.)

Also, the tarsier is staring at me.

I'm sure all of these animals think humans are really freaking looking.
