A Marine Biology Question

[Ice Dragon]

I was wondering if anyone knows the true job title for someone who searches for, studies, and bases all of his/her carrier on the creatures of the deep. (i.e. anglerfish, ect.)

[Inuyasha]

A deep marine biologist

[Solid Snake]

thats a deep sea marine biologist

[Cyranian]

I was looking up some sites when I came across this site listing careers in marine biology. Looks like those who studies in deep sea mammals are just called simply "Marine mammal biologist."

[Solid Snake]

a fish ,however, which was what the original post was about is not a mammal.

[Inuyasha]

That makes no sense. Study deep sea biology is also the study of whales and other deep living creatures. So mammals are part of deep sea marine biology.

[Solid Snake]

that is true but the only example given was of an anglerfish, which im assuming is a fish

[Cyranian]

Probably should've read what Ice posted in the first place, Snake. He asked about the name of the job of one who studies creatures of the deep, and the anglerfish is just one example of a creature of the deep.

Very few mammals live in the benthic zone of the ocean...a deep sea biologist would not focus on mammals.

[Cyranian]

How true, biostudent. My last post stands corrected. My apologies.

theyve found dead whales down there and hagfish and also theyve found out that some sharks live down there. and whales go down there to feed for a short time. for the squid
