NEW ANTARCTIC ANIMALS

It's time for New Animals to get literal about its title. That's why I present today: New Animals of the Antarctic. Some giant sea creatures have been discovered on a recent trip around New Zealand's Antarctic waters. These include large sea spiders (!), jellyfish with 12-foot tentacles, huge sea snails, and 2-foot-wide starfish.

Last year, hundreds of other Antarctic sea species were discovered including the baby isopod Ceratoserolis pictured above. You can view more pictures of new deep sea species at National Geographic. And here's a genius book on strange creatures from the deep and for fun, a list of 10 horrible deep sea creatures.
