vampire squis

Vampire squid
Vampire squid has lots of spikes underneath there tentigaon and they got 2 lights above their head.

A new paper by MBARI Postdoctoral Fellow Henk-Jan Hoving and Senior Scientist Bruce Robison shows for the first time that, unlike its relatives the octopuses and squids, which eat live prey, the vampire squid uses two thread-like filaments to capture bits of organic debris that sink down from the ocean surface.
