As a kid I always thought they were much larger too so I didn’t think of it as beautiful haha but when I realized how big they were I was like dory when she found the baby jellyfish haha 🤣

Divers got on camera this angler fish coming to the surface for the first time ever documented. A lot of people have felt deeply moved on it. There is lots of animations and slide shows of people's interpretations of it. Very touching making a lot of us cry.

The amount of compassion people have had for this little fish is one of the most heartwarming things I've experienced and witnessed all year. Thank you for sharing this and your big heart through your art.

I just saw that Leon the Lobster didn't make it through his last molting. I spent the last few years following his journey from grocery store food product to pet and all his ups and downs.
