Atlantic Wolffish
Anarhichas lupus
Atlantic wolffish inhabit cold, deep coastal waters with rocky bottoms, reefs, and sheltering crevices. They use formidable jaws and blunt teeth to crush hard-shelled prey such as sea urchins, crabs, and mollusks. Adults are largely solitary and may defend a den, while males are notable for guarding egg masses.
