Some fish have human teeth? Well, not actual human teeth on fish, but fish with teeth that look like humans? Confused? Watch the video SUBSCRIBE for the latest videos: https://goo.gl/7xzjzR Don't forget to CHECK OUT our latest upload: https://goo.gl/LUB8Xw TEEEETH! That’s what the video is about. In this episode we’re looking at the strangest teeth found in sea creatures. 12. Gob Faced Squid There’s a certain squid, that we’ve talked about in a previous video, that looks like he has human teeth!! It’s the gob faced squid or for the scientists out there, the Promachoteuthis sulcus. But how about those teeth? Sorry to dissapoint you, but those aren’t real teeth. They are actually folded skin, or lips if you want to call them that way. We can’t see it in this picture, but behind the lips is the squid’s beak. 11. Sawfish What about their teeth? Well, their snout is made of cartillage and it is an extension of their skull and is lined with teeth, like a chainsaw. Their teeth are not actual teeth, they are actually fish scaled evolved to look like teeth. They continue to grow during the sawfish’s life and they don’t fall off and get replaced, like a shark’s teeth do, for example. 10.Goliath Tiger Fish Okay, now we’re gettting at some real teeth and with the Goliath Tiger Fish. It can grow up to 5 feet and weight over 100 lbs. Normally it feeds on fish that he ambushes in the rapids, using his superior strenght and those massive teeth. 9.Cookiecutter Shark The cookiecutter shark name refers to it’s feeding habits. Using his sharp teeth and gaping jaw he bites larger animals, leaving round gouging holes, as if cut with a cookie cutter shape. 8. Fangtooth Moray Eel The Fangtooth Moray Eel, also know as the Tiger Moray, is a species of eel, found in the warmer parts of the Eastern Atlantic Ocean, including the Mediteranean Sea. It’s massive transparent teeth. If you think these huge glass like fangs are scary, just you wait, because guess what it has inside it’s mouth? ANOTHER SET OF TEETH! 7. Hagfish Next on our list, the Hagfish, are widely considered the most disgusting animals in the ocean, if not on earth. The eel-shaped creatures use four pairs of thin sensory tentacles surrounding their mouths to find food—including carcasses of much larger animals. Once they find their meal, they bury into it face-first to bore a tunnel deep into its flesh. 6. Sea Lamprey Next on our list we have the Sea Lamprey. This freakish-looking creature uses a similar tactic to the cookiecutter shark, but rather than a row of teeth, the lamprey has no jaw at all. Its mouth is one big suction cup, barbed on the inside with vicious teeth that it uses to bore into the flesh of other fish, either eating them down to the bones or simply sucking their blood, depending on the species. 5.Eastern Beaded Chiton Chitons, also known as sea cradles, are marine mollusks, small, rather flat and oval in shape, with a hard shell. On number 5 on our list is this one, the Eastern Beaded Chiton. Doesn’t look very impressive, I know, but wait until you see what’s underneath. The Eastern Beaded Chiton uses its hard teeth, or radula, which look like black bulbs with bluish highlights, to chew and grind up rock in order to feed on algae and other organic material. 4.Narwhal We’re getting closer to the top and we are looking at narwhals, the unicorns of the sea. They are social animals and are typically found in pods throughout the waters of the Arctic Ocean. It’s most impressive and unique feature, the horn is actually a tooth. Male narwhals have an enlarged, spiraled canine tooth, which can grow up to 10 feet. 3.Leatherback Turtle At number 3 we have some horrifying teeth. What creatures can this be? A shark or some weird deep sea fish? No…. It’s actually a leatherback turtle. It is one of the largest living turtle and can reach over 7 ft in length. Unlike other sea turtles, the leatherback turtle lacks a bony shell and gets its name from the thick, leathery skin that instead covers its carapace. It mostly feeds on jellyfish and other soft prey. 2.Frilled Shark Number 2 on our list is something that looks like it came out of a horror movie. Little is known about the frilled shark, fossil records suggest it belongs to a group of sharks that has been around for at least 95 million years! Because it usually lives at depth it is very rarely seen alive. 1. Pacu Number one on our list is the Pacu, an omnivorous fish found in South America related to the piranha, most famous for it’s human-like teeth. When you first see a photo of the Pacu, you immediately think Photoshop! But no, they are real, but not so dangerous.
