We know quite a bit about the anglerfish because it’s so weird that bloggers love to talk about it.
But it’s rare to catch footage of one in its natural habitat because
they live deep down where there is little sunlight. An ROV from the
Monterrey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (
MBARI) recorded this anglerfish at a depth of 600 meters in Monterrey Canyon. Although scientists at MBARI have
recorded anglerfish before, they believe this is first time the species
Melanocetus, or the Black Seadevil, has been filmed.
