The Deep Dark Sea was sparked from an intriguing fact: 80% of our ocean remains unexplored and we have explored the surface of the moon more than our own ocean. Additionally, life in the deep sea was discovered surprisingly recently (only in the 1970's). The deep sea is a vast and largely unexplored place, where animals are both terrifying and beautiful, and they have developed amazing adaptations to life in such a harsh and unforgiving place. Through a children s book filled with illustrations and infographics, and an accompanying animation of the creatures in motion, The Deep Dark Sea is a celebration of our mysterious and strange world.

An extreme wildlife photographer explores the bizarre species that thrive in complete darkness with more than 200mesmerizing color photos. Deep inside caves, at the bottoms of oceans and lakes, beneath the ground: these concealed habitats are absent of sunlight, and yet full of life. This strange world of complete darkness is inhabited by millions of life forms that most humans have never seen. Now Danté Fenolio brings the denizens of these shadowy haunts into focus. Life in the Dark shows us the many ways in which life forms have adapted to lightless environments, including refinements of senses, evolution of unique body parts, and illumination using “biological flashlights.” Discover fascinating creatures like the firefly squid, the giant Amazonian catfish, the Chinese cavefish, and even the human bot fly, which lives in the darkness beneath its host’s skin. Fenolio’s rich and vibrant images shed new light on the world’s fascinating creatures of darkness.
