      The blobfish is not so cute - This dreary looking fish lives in the deep waters around Australia, 1200 metres below the surface, and it is rarely seen by humans. Its 30cm long body is a gelatinous mass almost without muscles. It floats lazily through the water eating what it meets on its way.
