maybe it can have something to do with creatures that live in the deepest parts of bodies of water

There have been a lot of new animals found in the forests of Indonesia.  Here's a story I found on it. Enjoy.\n\nhttp://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060207/ap_on_sc/indonesia_new_species

While it might be possible that some of these creatures exist, it certainly can't be said to be 'probable'.\n\nWe are still finding new species of mammals and birds all the time.  Genetic studies have even shown us that some of the critters we thought we knew are more diverse than we thought.\n\nRecently it was discovered that the species we know as the African elephant is in fact two species, a savannah species and a forest species.  So we have 'found' one of the largest species of land mammal just in the last few years.  Another study found that there was a population of the Bactrian camel (the one with two humps) that was actually a separate species too.\n\nSo it is possible that there may be some critter hidden off in the deep forest somewhere that we've never seen before.  But the chances of something like Bigfoot/Sasquatch remaining undiscovered in the rather well explored forests of North America are rather low.\n\nThe best chance for new, exciting and incredible discoveries are in the seas.  We really have barely scratched the surface in our exploration there, and there could be all kinds of new, even huge and exciting finds down there.\n\nJust in the last few years, the Megasquid was described, whose body is larger than that of the Giant Squid (although the tentacles aren't as long), actual live footage of the Giant Squid was finally taken, and Coelacanths were found off the coast of Indonesia, 10 000 km from where it was thought was the only place they existed.

Not most fish, all fish.

It is the area of land that is underwater for half the day and above water the other half. This is caused by the rise an fall of sea levels due to high and low tides.

The colouration may not make as much sense on land, when they are waddling about, but in the sea as they 'fly' through the water in search of fish and squid and other yummies, it is actually a highly effective form of camouflage.\n\nCalled counter-shading, it makes them pale from below, blending into the brighter background of the surface, and dark from above, blending into the stygian blackness of the abyssal depths.\n\nA lesser form of counter-shading is common in many terrestrial critters as well, where belly fur is often paler than the pelage on the dorsal surface.  Dogs, kitties, even squirrels and bunnies often show this same pattern.\n\nIn the watery environs of a pelagic predator, it is even more effective due to the greater degree of contrast in the environment, and the lack of effective cover in which to hide.  \n\nCounter-shading can be seen in critters like sharks, dolphins, swordfish,  and tuna.\n\nHere's a picture of a tuna showing counter-shading http://www.panamafishingandcatching.com/tuna/preultimo-tuna-tunalarge.jpg\n\nAnd one of a shark http://na.nefsc.noaa.gov/sharks/img/27.jpg\n\nProbably the best examples of counter-shading would be the orca (aka killer whale), and the manta ray.  Like penguins, they are very distinctly black on the back and white underneath.\n\nManta ray http://www.no-pest.com/MantaRay.jpg\n\nOrca http://orca-voyance.auraciel.com/orque2a.jpg

You have fish in inverted commas, does that mean you are unsure?  Did it have eyes, a mouth, gills?  Was it a vertebrate? The first thing I thought of was a sea slug or flatworm.  A sea slug seems more likely in a Carribean coral reef.

My brine's awash with possible theories. I haddock a few answers, but they all turned out to be damp squids. It's the sea air, it fogs the senses. Time to stop carping on . Ah whelk, i'll say tartar. Nothing newt there then.

Deep down they are looking for something

It's possible , I'm hoping those blood thirsty creatures have had their fill of humans for a while . I have heard that Jeff has been extra careful and hasn't even been in the tub to bathe since the previous attack !

Yes it can, and it is usually due to volcanic events under the water.

yes.\n\nthey are mammals and do not breathe underwater.\n\nthey take in air at the surface, so it does not matter what type of water they live in.

Reminder: 5n Theory, all continents used to be attached to one another- so in theory this is highly possible- if two of every species has moved from place to place. Also remember, animals have a good sense of unusual events happening, like earthquakes and things, so they might have had the sense to know where to go. Then you might ask about the unicorns, but it is said that they were too stubborn to get on the ship... dragons and pegasuses... I have no idea about.

Well if there was a large seaweed kill and a lot of animals were dead it's possible.  But, it a nice poem so I included the part you referenced.\n\n\nWater, water, every where,\nAnd all the boards did shrink ;\nWater, water, every where,\nNor any drop to drink.\n \nThe very deep did rot : O Christ !\nThat ever this should be !\nYea, slimy things did crawl with legs\nUpon the slimy sea.\n\nAbout, about, in reel and rout\nThe death-fires danced at night ;\nThe water, like a witch's oils,\nBurnt green, and blue and white.

I say no. Not to be different but because I actually don't think that they do. The whole... "Living creature" is crap I feel the same way about birds! Look at the meat they are obviously VERY different then a cat or a dog or a cow or a human. I really don't think they feel pain. I say this because look at the environment they live in. It can be 10 or 110 degrees out and a bird still flies & a fish still swims. If it had the same pain perception that mammals have don't you think it would be painful to be in these temps? Or maybe they would adapt to one or the other?

hell no , the exact opposite get the smaller ones out of the pond because they are the ones competing for resources with  the bigger ones so in order to prevent overpopulation kill of the smaller ones not the bigger ones, bigger gills have bigger babies
