Kiwa hirsuta
Isn't this newly discovered crustacean adorable? It is called Kiwa hirsuta and is so unusual that scientists created a new family and genus for it: Kiwaida, from Kiwa, the goddess of crustaceans in Polynesian mythology. Divers found the silky, blond lobster-like creature 900 miles south of Easter Island, 7,540 feet below the water's surface.
