More information:
Blobfishes live in deep waters off the coasts of mainland Australia and Tasmania . Blobfishes live in depths between 600-1200m.The flesh of the blobfish is primarily a gelatinous mass with a density slightly less than water allowing it to float above the sea floor without using energy on swimming
Blobfishes are rarely seen by humans because they live so deep in the waters. However, blobfishes are endangered due to bottom trawling and deep-sea fishing.
Meaning: Fishing with a trawl net .
