Had to share this tidbit from my homepaage :

Looking like a cross between a rat and an octopus, the star-nosed mole would be a good candidate for the title of world's weirdest-looking creature..


f'ing ewww ! A Rat with 22 arms ( okay they call them appendages ...... and its actually a " Mole " ) !

    You forget to mention that the 22 appendages were on the mole's nose.

    I like how the video showed a glass see-through view of those appendages in action, detecting a bit of something edible amongst a pile of dirt, and then eating it.

    I'm so glad I watched that life fulfilling video because I know I can now die.

    The Deep Sea Hatchetfish or Argyropelecus gigas has large sunken eyes that are permanently looking upwards towards the surface. These odd eyes help them find the food that is floating downwards towards the bottom. As you can tell from the pictures though, these eyes also make them look like the psychos of the ocean!
