Secret Scientific Expedition To Deep Sea Reveals Never Seen Before Fish And A Kaleidoscope Of Colors (Pictures & Comments)

We're a little afraid of the ocean, but don't judge us, okay? We just don't really understand what resides down there. You never know what new kind of jellyfish or crazy creature from the depths might just be waiting to gobble you up. But, this is why we explore, to find new things! And it turns out that there is still a lot to find - the scientists behind this expedition estimate 100+ new species of fish and marine life could be found off the Chilean coast.

Scientists explored an underwater mountain off the coast of Chile (and the mountain is 4x taller than the world's tallest building!) finding a myriad of new fish and ocean life. We've got new sea sponges, walking fish, and squids galore! If you're fan of things that look out of this world, you're certainly in the right place. Scroll down to unveil some marvelous new creatures and a kaleidoscope and colors!

This little guy is clearly the star of this expedition. Look at his silly little face, and his fins were made for walking, and that's just what they'll do! A walking fish, what a strange concept. What else could we pawssibly find in the ocean?

This just looks crazy - how could something evolve to create such a uniquely webbed structure? Nature is truly amazing, and it's so cool that in 2024 we're still discovering new species. Do you think we'll eventually find the Loch Ness monster?
