EDITORS COMMENTS
Chillin' Under the Ice: Mackerel Icefish Takes a Dip in Antarctica's Cool Club!". In this mesmerizing snapshot captured by Paulo de Oliveira, we witness the incredible world beneath the Antarctic ice. Meet our star of the show, Champsocephalus gunnari, also known as the Mackerel Icefish. This fishy fellow belongs to a unique family called Channichthyidae, who have an extraordinary trick up their fins. Unlike other vertebrates, these cool cats don't rely on haemoglobin to transport oxygen through their bodies. Nope! They've got a different game plan altogether. Instead of red blood cells doing all the work, they use good ol' blood plasma to get that precious O2 flowing smoothly. But wait! There's more! Joining our icy friend is another fascinating creature - Hyperoglyphe antarctica or Antarctic Butterfish (also known as Bluenose Warehou). These buddies can grow up to a whopping 1.4 meters long! Together, they navigate through the abyssal depths of Antarctica's chilly waters with grace and style. It's like watching synchronized swimmers performing an enchanting underwater ballet. So dive into this print and let your imagination swim alongside these remarkable deep-sea dwellers. Marvel at nature's ingenuity as it unfolds before your eyes – reminding us once again that there are endless wonders lurking beneath those icy waves.
