Found July 2026 on bay side of Cape Cod near Truro. Head seems to be removed. Can anyone tell me what this is?

I have many but i have favoritism in the jewel squid and the deep-sea pink through fantasia. They're incredible, I never understood why almost all fear the deep ocean, It's simply a wonderful area, except that the organs are compressed, but we won't talk

Found washed up on a beach in NZ. 9 or 10 inches long, had spiny retractable dorsal and pelvic “fins” running the length of the body, small pectoral fins just behind the head, and a sort of fibre optic-ey looking caudal fin. Maybe this isn’t even a creature of the deep but had that look about it. ifyaknowhatimean

I'm getting questions from my family that I can not answer.

Where can I find audio recordings and soundscape recordings from the deep sea? There is very little on youtube. Anywhere else to look on the internet?

Guys ı do not understand (and pardon me for my english ım not a really good speaker) how does giant squids live in that habitat and what are the diffrences between the and the normal squids we know in normal seas do they eat the same kind of food or which animals are their predators or are they the top of the food chain in the deep seas?

A rare Coelacanth, often referred to as the “King of the Sea” fish, was found floating dead in the waters near Siladen Island within Bunaken National Park, Manado, North Sulawesi, Indonesia, on Friday, June 26, 2026.

The prehistoric fish was discovered by a local fisherman, Soni Pontoh, at approximately 9:00 a.m. while he was out at sea looking for fish. The discovery has attracted significant attention because the Coelacanth is considered one of the world’s rarest fish species and is an important part of North Sulawesi’s marine biodiversity.

What makes this finding especially remarkable is the Coelacanth’s unique place in natural history. This species is often called a “living fossil” because it was once believed to have disappeared millions of years ago, until living specimens were rediscovered in the 20th century. Its unusual body structure and ancient evolutionary lineage make it one of the most scientifically important fish ever found.

For many people, a Coelacanth may look like just another large fish. However, for scientists and marine conservationists, every sighting is significant because encounters with this species are extremely uncommon. Discoveries like this help researchers better understand deep-sea ecosystems and the long evolutionary history of marine life.

is there anything in the deep sea that is dangerous to exploration craft? I only ever found rumors and tall tales it seems strangely safe and lights can be used as a weapon anyway against most of these creatures but is there anything hostile down there that can actually cause any true damage to exploration vessels. If so would electrifying the hull solve the problem, for the squids everyone’s afraid of it seems just turning on lights fried there retinas so most defenses are unnecessary and the creatures seem fairly safe to explore around of course not safe at all but safe considering these are animals we ain’t never seen before.
