Either way these animals (like most in the ocean) blow my mind. So amazingly beautiful and alien. I wish we were able to explore the abyss...we can only imagine the sizes and shapes of what amazing beings reside there. |

Thank you for clarifying. They were not talking about this exact specimen in the article, but one's that may be 'full grown'. It amazes me the people that think they are intelligent, yet have no basic understanding of journalistic writing. |
