Part 5/9:
The journey then transports visitors into the depths of over 3,000 metres below the ocean surface, where mysterious creatures dwell beyond the reach of sunlight. This segment showcases the ocean’s twilight zone, with animals like the tripod fish—capable of "walking" along the seabed—highlighting adaptations to the dark, pressure-heavy environment. These creatures maintain a subdued coloration, an adaptation to the absence of light.
One awe-inspiring exhibit features a life-sized whale skeleton that visitors can walk through, illustrating how even in death, whale remains serve as ecosystems for scavengers, supporting deep-sea life for decades. This immersive exposure offers laypeople a rare glimpse into the unseen world of the deep ocean, emphasizing the importance of preservation.
