Anglerfish With “Fin-Feet” Found Walking Deep Under The Atlantic Ocean

Scientists sailing on a research trip have captured videos of an anglerfish with fin-feet, i.e. fins that can be used as feet. They found this fish deep under the surface of the ocean- the areas that receive no sunlight.

 
 

The Pink Frogmouth (Chaunax pictus) can reach up to a length of five feet while weighing close to 110 pounds. But what makes the fish special, is the presence of fin-feet.
 
The anglerfish was recorded in Mona Canyon off the coast of Puerto Rico. This was recorded on the Okeanos expedition of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. They are usually found at depths of 200-900 meters, in both the Mediterranean and the Atlantic.
