Why we need to save ugly fish from extinction
The ugliest fish are the most in need of our help - here’s how our shallow beauty bias is threatening the planet.
Ugly fish need love too, scientists are urging.
From the effortlessly elegant angel fish to the objectively hideous blob fish, marine life comes in all shapes and sizes.
But the ugly ducklings of the underwater kingdom are under threat. According to new research, humans might not care about the odd-looking species enough to save them from extinction.
So why are we so superficial?
They found that the ugliest fish were the most at risk of dying out - yet they were also the most ecologically important.
Bright, colourful fish species with rounded bodies - like angel fish, clown fish, and parrot fish - received the most favourable responses.

SIMILAR TO THE FISH KINGDOM, IN THE HUMAN KINGDOM THE UGLIEST MEN ARE ALSO THE MOST ECOLOGICALLY IMPORTANT. THEY SUSTAIN THE ECONOMY WITH THEIR BETABUCKSING.
UGLY MEN
