faceless fish during one of his deep sea dive explorations.
Harry is an experienced deep sea diver, who along with his
team of divers went on a search for old and valuable
findings under the sea.
4. It was a scientific voyage being undertaken to explore one
of Australia’s oldest diving spots. Near the ocean bed, Harry
and his team found a faceless fish and some undefined
creatures. The long journey included surveying life under
the sea bed with the help of nets, sonar, radars, and deep
sea cameras.
5. “It was the most unexplored areas of the ocean. There we
found red spiky rock crabs, puffed up coffin fish, deep sea
eels, and then came the faceless fish, which was seen
before only once. It doesn’t have eyes or a visible face and
the mouth is underneath. It is amazing to see that at such
depths where there is so much darkness, there exist
creatures like these.” Harry Coumnas was quotes as
saying by a local newspaper.
6. Harry Coumnas also told the reporters that working in such
an environment was quite challenging, but he is glad as the
amount of data gathered will help in understanding
Australia’s deep sea habitats.
