Anglerfish live in the depths of the sea, where the sun’s rays do not penetrate. This fish is considered the most frightening and ugliest fish on planet Earth. Anglers spend most of their lives at the very bottom, where they burrow into silt or sand. Anglerfish are widespread in the cold waters of the Atlantic and Antarctic oceans. On the head of females there is a small process with a fleshy appendage resembling a fishing rod with a float, thanks to which the fish got such an unusual name.
