The red-lipped batfish is a type of fish that lives in the deep sea and is known as the batfish because of its flattened body. Because of their fashionable bright red lips at that time, they were called red-lipped batfish. The red-lipped batfish live on the ocean floor near the Galapagos Islands and are one of the strangest fish in the world. Red-lipped batfish are said to attract the opposite sex and the same kind through their red lips, and they cannot swim at all, but can only "walk" by placing their double fins on the seabed.
Although it may seem comical, this animal did not become extinct because it could not swim, on the contrary, it was a carnivore in its own right. Because the tail is full of thorns, few animals dare to swallow it into their stomachs.
At a depth of 1,200 meters off the coast of Mexico, firework jellyfish live. Their bodies are rich in color, and after absorbing light, they can reflect bright fluorescent colors. The tentacles of the firework jellyfish are always slowly swaying and fluttering in the water. If these jellyfish appear in groups, it will look like a luxurious fireworks feast.

When it succeeds in courtship, it will start dancing in circles around each other. Scientists are said to have spent 8 years studying them. Because it is difficult to observe how they courtship and dance.
The species was discovered in 1938 and inhabits sclerophyll forests in Chile. It is because of its unique appearance that it has obtained the name of "Panda Ant". But in fact, it is actually a wasp, usually only males have wings. Their appearance is mainly white, and there are some small spines on it that can resist the threat of other species, so that other species dare not touch them.
Panda ants are one of the most endangered animal species in the world. That's because these ants can only lay up to 2,000 eggs per year. In addition, they can also become food for predators, and adult ants can only live for 2 years.
They grow up in the deserts of Australia, and their appearance looks full of thorns, which seems very scary and dangerous. But on the contrary, it is actually very timid. In their daily lives, they feed on ants. This is thanks to its sticky tongue, which helps it stick and eat ants.

Every second, 10 pairs of 15 different places can be detected, which is 5 times the sensitivity of human fingers.
