This is one of the most bizarre creatures of nature I’ve ever seen. It is called Macropinna microstoma and it has an amazing feature - a transparent head! Yes, you can see through its head, and not only you - the fish itself uses this gift of nature to look through its own head to watch for prey directly above its head using its binocular-like eyes.



You need to look at other pictures.



This fish has been first documented in 1939 and it hasn’t been photographed since 2004. Why? The reason is simple - it lives in depths below 600m. We’ll need to wait for advanced SCUBA diving technology similar to one portrayed in The Abyss to look into the eyes and through the head of this bugger.
