The Giant Isopod is a crustacean that looks like it's straight out of a science fiction movie. These creatures can grow up to 2.5 feet long and have a hard, segmented exoskeleton. They are scavengers, feeding on the carcasses of dead animals that sink to the ocean floor. Despite their frightening appearance, Giant Isopods are not a threat to humans.
