Ocean twilight zone is home to abundant deep sea life

"In the ocean's shadowy depths lies one of the Earth's last frontiers: the ocean twilight zone. It's a vast swath of water extending throughout the world's oceans from 650 to 3,280 feet (200 to 1,000 meters) below the surface, and it abounds with life: small but fierce-looking fish, giant glowing jellies, and microscopic animals that feed marine life higher up the ocean's food web." - Excerpt from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.
