Dumbo Octopus
This is a very rare octopus species that lives at very deep depths of the ocean, so nicknamed because of its ear like fins that protrude from the top of its head. They are creatures from the deep and are of the genus Grimpoteuthis family.
The Hagfish
The hag fish is certainly an unusual creature it is also thought to be very old, science themselves are not sure wither they can really categorize the hagfish as an actual fish. This creature are whats called marine craniates – classed Mixini or known as Hyperotreti. They have very unusual feeding habits apparently and produce slime. Media and science alike tend to dub them one of the most disgusting sea creatures.
The Aye Aye
Considered an [FONT=inherit !important]important[/FONT] species that is deemed to be one of the world's largest nocturnal primate, and it hails from Madagascar – it has rodent like teeth and has a long middle finger. To find food it will tap on trees with its finger to find grubs then chews a hole in the wood, inserting the middle finger to get its prize.
Almiqui
This strange looking thing was thought to have been extinct until scientists deiscovered it in 2003 were it was found to exist near the eastern mountains of cuba. The pictured animal weighing 24 ounces. Almiqui appears to be a small animal with dark brown to black hair and small eyes. It resembles a large brown rat. From its nose to tail, its length can reach between 16 to 22 inches (40 to 55cm)
The Purple Frog
This frog spends most of its life buied underground, only emerging for 2 weeks of the year during the monsoon season for the sole purpose of mating. Whats makes this different from other ground burrowing frogs is that it even eats underground foraging on grubs, termites and such like.
Deep Sea Hatchet Fish
Dubbed the fish of the damned by some it gets its name from the shape of its body. They vary in size growing from between 1 and 6 inches long. They are often mistake for fresh water hatchet fish commonly seen in people’s homes. These fish have the ability to create their own light – the process is known as Bioluminescence. Little is known about his fish’s life cycle or it's breeding habits.
