one problem all these deep sea fish have in aquarium is they can't handle the light (it was proven by some squid research group) and the water is much too warm for them in most large aquarium tanks.
motherfucking brainless japanese torturing animal again... for fuck sake end its misery! the only way u idiots caught it was because it was already floating on the top of the sea ready to die. u just HAD to make the painful death LONGER...
To everyone crying about animal abuse, come on people. We murder cattle for hamburgers and eat the eggs of chickens. We buy fish for our tanks and we have animals for pets. Even if someone went deep down 3k feet beneath the surface and stole this Oarfish and brought it up to the surface, so what? The people could have been a predator and just ate the oarfish. It got caught before it was too close to surface or not sneaky enough. Strong survive, and only people cry.
@Skycrusher Or more aptly in a human sense - lawmakers survive, and they do so by implementing their opinions. So by the same token those who are 'crying' about animal abuse - being people with opinions too - could feasibly one day also implement their opinion and make changes in the general perceptions and actions of others. Altruism and the ability to socialise is, after all, what made the human species evolve so efficiently. That altruism has changed the behaviours and practices of many.
Deep sea fishes are usually black or red color, and luminescent, and small size duo to lack of energy. Only cretaceous living in the very deep (> 1000m underwater) will have large body size for unknown reason.
In contrary, fishes in open water will usually have silver body color and large body size.
Even if it is very alive, the fins of deep sea fishes are not as effective as fishes living in the shallow water. And I never saw any scientific reports, ichthyology textbooks or journal papers saying that oarfishes are living in the deep sea. In fact, based on its anatomy, I personally think it would hardly be a deep sea fish, but very much likely lives in open water full of plankton.
deepsea animals wont last long on this invironment ^,..,^ Imagine a man with out a space suit walking on the moon even if Yes he has food, yes he has oxygen tanks to breath, yes he has shades for the sun light, etc etc. but he will die cause the preasure is diferent Hight to nothing or on this topic high to low preasure
Deep sea fish like these usually only come to the surface when they are sick and ready to die,I don't see why people are all upset about it when it was already getting ready to die when they found it.
I don't see what the big deal is. These guys come to the surface when they are sick or dieing. From and educational standpoint, this is amazing that they put this beast on display. Granted it was only for a short period of time, but having the ability to see one of these magnificent deep ocean creatures (for the time being) alive is amazing. Seeing it's beauty from an internet video just doesn't cut it.
and that doesn't even touch what "we" do to less intelligent animals. I'm not saying I agree with eating dolphins, nor with the things that we do. But you guys need to check yourselves on the racism and cultural differences.
Wow.. there's some ignorant people, not at all shy about their racism on here. If the actions of a few Japanese people represent all Japanese people, you don't want to know what the rest of the world thinks of us Americans. Further, some may "eat dolphins," but I assume your only problem with that is that they're one of the most intelligent animals.. well, we eat pigs, octopi, and birds.. and kill rodents (squirrels, rats, mice), and birds for sport or as pests, and those are also intelligent.
but i'm sure the professionals know what they're doing. they wouldn't just toss a random fish into an aquarium without doing research first. hell for all we know this fish could have been raised by humans from birth
I'm glad you didn't make a racist comment. Though I can inform you that Oarfish is not dying. You can tell by the movements of it's "fins". This one is very much very alive. The ones that people usually see (dying ones) the "fins" are hardly moving let alone move as much as the one in the video. That's why they end up on the shores in thailand or near rocks because their fins aren't strong enough to swim.
@JayteePhandango Wtf are you TALKING about? The fins are HARDLY moving. You'd think that the fins would be MORE "lively" than that if it was truly "ALIVE." Compared to the stingray's "wings," that is, the oarfish's fins are slower.
I mean, srsly, it's "rare to bee seen" for a reason. If it wasn't, swimmers would be seeing this thing like a shark attracted to crowds in a thrash-ridden beach.
the oarfish lives in deep sea, they are use to high water pressure, that beautifull fish you are looking right there, its suffering, not matter how clean the water is nor if its eating "great" but, its body isn't made for surface, such a beautifull fish shouldn't be there, it is not the oarfish's habitat ......hope that answer questions...and yes they usually come to the surface when they are sick or dying hopefully that 1 gets use to the surface or it is good as dead :(...
Another vid had one of these things swimming belly up in the Gulf of Mexico in it's natural habitat (via an ROV feed). I guess I'm just too used to that meaning a bad thing, but presumably it's normal behavior(?).
...And sorry about my eng, i know it sucks a bit, but i guess i've made my point there!
And release the poor fish from the tank, like the did with Willy(the Orca)!! xD
Cos watchin this vid is really annoyin with all those people yelling, like, "Look! The fish it's swiming and doubling himself! Ow..So beautiful!". Urgh..just annoying!!!
...And i wonder somethin?! How did they catch an Oarfish?! Probably with those high-tech shit they have, maybe they have invented somethin that can dive, and hold the pressure of the ocean without smashin or breakin the gadget, and could bring things from the bottom of the ocean like they did, with all those pics we are tired to see, from the poor sinked Titanic!
And just wait guys, and you'll someday probably see Oarfish canned-food!! xD...
...But my thought about it is, the human who had the opportunity to see one of this, would never forget about the day when he saw one, and pray for one day, he can see one Oarfish again. And things should be like this, not catch a fish just to attract people to a aquarium, just to make some greens!
And all this people photographin and admirin the fish! Brrr... :P
I know what they want!! They just want to taste a little bit of him like they do with the wales meet!...
Why don't they just free the poor fish into the ocean so he can swim freely, instead of puttin im on a tank without the water pressure that exists on the depths of the ocean!
Cos lookin to that poor fish tryin to escape from there, makes me cry, and revolts me the way that people admire it.
And i know this fish is extremely rare to the human eyes, and really, really beautiful too, that makes me think he's a gods pet or somethin for the extreme beauty that he has....
poor beautiful thing :(
