I don't know what it is, but it's weird and pissed off.

He then exclaimed: "I have to look at such features as the shape of the teeth, the jaws, the shape of the gill rakers, as well as counts of the vertebrae [to determine what it is].

"Now I have no idea what species this is.

For anyone else who instantly needed to know more about this incredibly adorable little jiggler, it was found in the mud and no one seems to have a clue what it could be.

My heart goes out to you. Hang in there, jiggly creature.

I wanted to see this thing in motion, so I tried to search up the youtube video, but no dice. Every article on it is just copy-pasted from the original on the Express site, and I can't get the embedded video attached to it to work. I did find an article on NIWA's site about a species of sea pig, which looks similar.

Haven't seen a horror movie come close to the levels of phycological fear I felt watching it. I remember reading the actors didn't even know who was who.

People ate referring to the 80s movie “The Thing” where a creature is dug up from under the Antarctic ice, and it turns out to be a shapeshifting carnivore.
