The Verge Review of Animals: the red-lipped batfish

Speaking of dining habits, the red-lipped batfish is a carnivore and tends to snack on small fish and crustaceans. The red-lipped batfish doesn’t have any predators of its own, and because it lives so far underwater, it’s mostly unaffected by environmental impact. If it’s not resilient, it’s at least lucky. The standard lifespan of a batfish is around 12 years, but I wish it was forever.
