People have totally redeemed themselves after giving a poor little fish a glow-up.
Turns out, when the gelatinous blobfish was declared the world's ugliest animal back in 2013. Ouch!
It wasn't given a fair shake.
The deep-sea creature you see, lives thousands of feet underwater,
and it looks a lot less globular down there, where...
water pressure is more than 100 times stronger than the air pressure we experience on land.
Now, the blobfish has a new title: Fish of the Year.
After voters in New Zealand weighed in as part of a competition bringing awareness to the country's marine life.
So next time you're feeling like people are hating on you, hang in there! Anything is possible.
Fantastic! Congrats, Blob!
