Happy Halloween!

Sometimes reality can be scarier than fiction!  Imagine a room filled with jars and jars of pickled specimens gathered from the recesses of the deep, dark ocean.  Walking through this room all you see are big eyes staring at you and mouths gaping open revealing long, sharp teeth.  In reality this spooky place is the Huntsman’s Atlantic Reference Centre (ARC), a research museum housing thousands of specimens of North Atlantic marine life.  Below is a sampling of the scary deep sea creatures found at the ARC.  Happy Halloween!
