Giant isopods are thought to have existed for more than 160 million years, evidence from the fossil record indicates.
A creepy video captured during a research dive off the coast of Florida shows a deep-sea creature feasting on the head of a fish.
Isopods are a type of crustacean that lives in both the ocean and terrestrial environments, of which there are about 10,000 species around the world. Though giant isopods were first discovered in 1879, there is still much about their biology and behavior we do not fully understand given that scientists have yet to conduct extensive studies on them. This is why videos such as this are so important to researchers.
