Now though, researchers at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in San Diego have revealed video footage that, for the first time, shows one of these creatures alive in its natural habitat.

The specimen was discovered off the coast of Western Australia by Josefin Stiller in 2015.

The story of the seadragon, along with the footage itself, can be viewed below.
