Some outstanding creature from world



I am going to present some interesting creature from world.I am presenting  some of them like the Olm, Assassin spider, blobfish, satanic gecko .

Hemeroplanes Caterpillar:

I know the picture looks like a snake but I assure you this is 100% a caterpillar. In fact that is the entire point of the Hemeroplanes Caterpillar, this master of camouflage has a very unique defence mechanism in that it can do a very good impression of a pit viper. If the Hemeroplanes Caterpillar feels threatened it will raise the top half of its body from the surface and inflate to resemble a pit viper – this crafty caterpillar even emulates a lunging motion giving the impression its about to strike!
 
Blobfish:

Blobfish is basically found in deep sea in Australia and Newzeland  and Tasmania.This  creature found in 600 to 1200 meters depth of sea.Blofish is survive in very low amount of food due to low exertion in its life.

 Blanket Octopus:

The Blanket Octopus is a truly remarkable sight. This unique octopus is able to open its tentacles to reveal a thin colourful membrane which spreads out like a ‘blanket’, this  is done to make the Blanket Octopus look bigger and ward away predators.

Assassin Spider:

Is it a spider? Or is it a giraffe? Look at its neck! The Assassin Spider (above) is indeed a truly bizarre specimen. The Assassin Spider sports a long neck which is needed to provide leverage due to its massive jaws which is uses to expertly catch and assassinate its prey.

Hatchet fish

This small fish spends its entire life in the darkest parts of the worlds oceans hidden from prying eyes. The Hatchet fish may not seem spectacular at first sight however the Hatchet fish is actually a light source in the deep, dark oceans it calls home. The Hatchet fish has organs in its sides called photophores which can be ‘turned on’ to give out a glow similar to that of an led light. The Hatchet fish uses this ability to attract unsuspecting prey and will do the opposite to evade predators.

Hairy Crab

Wouldn’t it be great if you could detoxify the air around you, removing pollution and poisons? That’s exactly what the ‘hairs’ that this crab is named for do. The ‘hair’ which is actually setae acts as I filter and removes damaging poisons and chemicals from the water surrounding the Hairy Crab. This ability is especially important to the blind Hairy Crab as it is known to make its home in some of the most inhospitable environments.

Satanic Leaf-tailed Gecko

So far we’ve had numerous masters of camouflage in this list but the Satanic Leaf-tailed Gecko really deserves the number one spot! Could there ever be a more accurate representation of a crusty dead leaf? I don’t think so!

Olm
The Olm is a fascinating example of an amphibian that makes its home in the waters of Europe. This bizarre creature can only be found in the deepest, darkest waters and relies on none of the traditional senses we humans are used to such as sight or hearing.

Leafy Sea Dragon

The Leafy Sea Dragon is a master of camouflage and spends its days drifting through the water perfectly emulating a floating piece of seaweed. The Leafy Sea Dragon goes to great lengths to stay camouflaged such as traveling extremely slow as to not give itself away. Like its closest relatives the sea horses, the male Leafy Sea Dragon carries fertilized eggs until they are ready to hatch.
