"As per the recent reports revealed, a rare deep-sea anglerfish was caught on camera for just about the 6th time in the entire history.
A researchers team carrying out a dive in Monterrey Bay off the shoreline of California have recorded first-ever video of a rarely seen occupant of the deep called the black seadevil. The animal was spotted this week in the dark, deep waters 2000 feet underneath the surface, by scientists of Monterrey Bay Aquarium Research Institute.
Bruce Robinson, MBARI Senior Scientist told the San Jose Mercury News Friday, “We have been plunging around here in the Monterrey Canyon routinely for 25 years, and we’ve seen three.”
Robinson said a luminous “fishing pole” anticipating from the angler fish’s head is a sparkling entice to pull in prey.
Robinson told the paper they caught the fish to study, yet don’t know how long will it will survive."
