Creatures
from the Abyss We are used to think that nowadays earth has almost no more secret
for human beings and that the explorers has reached almost everything
on our planet even the more hidden recesses. This is a common
mistake due to our habit to just consider the land above the sea
and forget the ocean deeps. Instead the oceans offer 99% of the
space on Earth where life can develop. And the deep sea, which
has been immersed in total darkness since the dawn of time, occupies
85% of ocean space, forming the planet’s largest habitat. Yet
these depths abound with mystery and so their inhabitants. It
has been calculated that the number of species yet to be found
in the deep sea vary between ten and thirty million. Here we have
6 examples of deep sea inhabitants taken from a wonderful bigger Gallery that
worths your visit.
