Australian researchers have long been trying to find a whole animal with strange shapes and variations. Finally, they succeeded. After 1,500 miles of searching in a marine park in western Australia yesterday, some oddly shaped fish were found.
A sticky substance can be observed on the body of this fish. Tim O’Hara, a member of the research team, said that for quite some time we have been trying to find some holistic animals with different variations.
Tim O’Hara believes that Australia’s Western Military District connects the Pacific and Indian Oceans. There are also sea creatures that have been evolving since the age of dinosaurs.
The research team is studying the new life in the ocean and its diverse features with great interest. They have found such fish that have their own wings and can use them to jump across the water.
These fish become prey for beached seabirds as they try to escape from larger marine animals. The eye size of these fish is quite small.

The body of these fish found is a little golden in colour. Batfish live very deep in the ocean. It looks very interesting. Anglerfish have such overall animal characteristics.
You will be surprised to hear that these fish can even walk on the surface of the sea. For that, small adapted legs are attached to their body.
