Bizarre Fish, World’s Weirdest Creatures Hauled From the Bottom of the Ocean

Russian fisherman Roman Fedortsov’s internet account is flooded with photos of the most bizarre deep-sea creatures ever. The man behind the camera works on a fishing trawler in Murmansk (extreme northwest of Russia) and uses his phone to document the scary creatures that get pulled in the fishing nets. Some argue that the strange fish look like something from a horror movie.

Roman Fedortsov is a fisherman based in Murmansk, Russia, who primarily seeks normal-looking fish like cod and haddock. But sometimes he catches non-target, rarely-seen species.

“This fish rarely gets into the trawl,” Fedortsov said via a Telegram app communication with Newsweek about one of his particularly odd catches. “This is an accidental catch.”

Currently, Fedortsov is in the Norwegian Sea, where he sets out deep-sea trawlers. Occasionally he catches non-target species, takes pictures of them, sometimes at odd angles, and posts the picture.

For example, the below picture is Lycodes reticulatus, a plentiful fish from the North Atlantic Ocean. Fedortsov said that he thinks they look like dwarves from The Lord of the Rings.

If you think the image on the left is from the upcoming DC movie, Aquaman, or any other science-fiction story, you are mistaken. The terrifying sea creature is, in fact, real and not a dummy or prosthetic from James Cameron or Ridley Scott film.

Of course, Fedortsov can make weird-looking fish look even weirder with some clever perspectives. For example, this halibut looks like it just has one eye, but the other eye is on the far side of its body. When halibuts are born, they have one eye on each side of their body, but then one eye migrates to join the other.

Russian Fisherman, Roman Fedorstov, has captured not just one .d.e.adly looking ‘deep-sea beast’ but many in his fishing career.
