The sea hides lots of strange creatures and every year one or two new ones are found.
In a way my fav strange creature is the Coelacanth, mainly because it is so ancient.
Another one is the Patagonian Toothfish which is primarily a southern ocean fish. It is also called Chilean Sea Bass but is not a sea bass and it is desperately endangered. Don't order it in restaurants.
