Antarctica's first whale skeleton found with nine new deep-sea species

Antarctica's first whale skeleton found with nine new deep-sea species: Marine biologists have, for the first time, found a whale skeleton on the ocean floor near Antarctica, giving new insights into life in the sea depths. The discovery was made almost a mile below the surface in an undersea crater and includes the find of at least nine new species of deep-sea organisms thriving on the bones.
