When I learned about anglers in an ocean documentary as a kid, it inspired me to devour any information I could on deep-sea life. For a while, I wanted to be a deep-sea biologist when I grew up - a career path that continues to intrigue me. In particular, I would love to research bathypelagic teleosts or abyssopelagic arthropods.

How is it that the most unsightly creatures often end up being the most palatable? Just look at bivalves, crustaceans, and the ling cod. While I find these creatures fascinating to behold, it cannot be argued that they're beautiful (exceptions are the shells of certain bivalves, but if you go underneath to the ooey gooey visceral mass, they're perhaps the ugliest of them all).
