'The Red Handfish (Thymichthys politus) is a bizarre species found only off the coast of Tasmania. This species has modified pectoral fins that resemble human hands.and it has no swim bladder, so it uses its fins to crawl along the seafloor, and it's one of the world's most endangered fishes, with fewer than 100 individuals remaining.'
