A diver exploring the underwater world around Bali, one of the islands of Indonesia, filmed a very unusual creature (see video below).
This strange animal has ten or more than ten legs, which are located along the spine in a checkerboard pattern and are covered with circular growths.
Its spherical translucent head swells to enormous proportions. On its sides are two long processes, at the end of which, in all likelihood, the organs of vision are located.
And at the bottom of this bizarre head is a mouth with very sharp teeth, with the help of which this creature not only swallows algae or small organisms, but can also drive away any predator that was not scared off by its repulsive appearance.
With such a large number of legs, the animal does not seem to use them for their intended purpose, but moves along the sandy seabed using a transparent flat sole, just like snails do.
The video posted on the Internet has already gathered thousands of viewers trying to unravel the mystery of the origin of the "sea monster".
And although many users of the worldwide network have expressed a variety of assumptions, the last word will remain with Steve Zissou, who is the most authoritative explorer of the world's oceans.
