Grenadier fish packed in ice after being caught
Fishing catch. Grenadier fish, suborder Macrouroidei, packed in ice after being caught by a trawler. Grenadier fish, related to cod, live 300 metres or more below the surface. The fish have been packed in ice to preserve them until the trawler can reach a port. Although tasty, grenadier fish are rarely used for human consumption due to their hard skin

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the aftermath of a successful fishing catch. The image captures the sight of grenadier fish, a type of fish belonging to the suborder Macrouroidei, carefully packed in ice after being caught by a trawler. Grenadier fish, closely related to cod, are known for their ability to survive at extreme depths of 300 meters or more below the ocean's surface. The purpose behind packing these delicate creatures in ice is to preserve them until they can be transported safely to a port. Despite their delectable taste, grenadier fish are rarely utilized for human consumption due to their tough skin. This fact adds an intriguing layer of mystery and curiosity surrounding this unique species. The frozen scene depicted in this photograph not only highlights the skill and expertise required within the fishing industry but also sheds light on various aspects such as fish preservation techniques and challenges faced by fishermen when dealing with low-resilience species like grenadier fish. Moreover, it subtly raises awareness about bottom trawling practices that impact marine ecosystems. Science Photo Library once again delivers an awe-inspiring visual representation that prompts viewers to ponder upon our relationship with nature and its resources without mentioning any commercial use or specific company details.
