WHY DO THESE ABOMINATIONS EVEN EXIST
They found this northwest of Hawaii. Size of a minivan apparently.

I personally think they're fascinating. Primarily because they are so biologically different than us.

Oh no I looked them up thinking they must be tiny for you to say that, but they can be a metre long and weigh 32kg?! And they can distend their stomach and jaw, meaning they can consume prey twice as large as their body. I'm only 53kg, can they swim on land? I need to put on weight.
Giant isopods, they can last years without food
Hell yeah

How long have they been down there?

>(little known fact, but 75% of nutrition of deep sea fish come from the nigthmares of mortals. This is not an actual scientific fact, so don't write than on an exam).
