Atlantic Wolffish (Anarhichas lupus) Wolffish generally resemble eels with long bodies and large, wonky, canine teeth for devouring meaty bits at night. Their blood contains a sort of natural antifreeze in order to combat the near-freezing waters they prefer to inhabit. (I think they remain bottom dwellers because, let’s be serious, not even a mother could love that face.)
