Freaky Animalz
Goblin Shark |
Naked Mole-Rat |
A goblin shark is a freaky shark-like fish. Scientists for many years thought they were extinct. When they bite, it seems like a mouth is coming out of their mouth. I think that this is because they have extendable jaws. They live deep in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and among other areas too. They also have this weird pinkish tone to their skin as you see above.

This creature isn't freaky, just ugly. It is the naked mole rat. It looks pretty much like a shaved rat. I wouldn't classify it as unique though. It is also known as the sand puppy. It has lack of pain in it's skin so it can be some-what comfortable in it's harsh environment. They live in colonies that range from 20 to 300 rats! A gross thing is that they eat their own poop as part of their diet.

Angler Fish
Do I really have to explain how this fish is freaky? Just look at the photo. Angler Fish are deep sea dwellers. They have a light on top of their head to attract prey. They have long sharp teeth, but they are not at the top of the food chain.
