ATLANTIC WOLFFISHAnarhichas lupus©Espen Rekdal
The Atlantic wolffish’s distinguishing feature, from which it gets its  common name, is its extensive teeth structure. Its dentition (teeth)  distinguishes the Atlanitic wolffish from all the other members of the  Anarhichadidae family. Both the lower and upper jaw are armed with four  to six fang-like, strong conical teeth. Behind the conical teeth in the  upper jaw, there are three rows of crushing teeth. The central row has  four pairs of molars and the outer rows house blunted conical teeth. The  lower jaw has two rows of molars behind the primary conical teeth. The  wolffish’s throat is also scattered with serrated teeth.
The Atlantic wolffish are primarily stationary fish, rarely moving from their rocky home. They are benthic dwellers,  living on the hard ocean floor, frequently seen in nooks and small  caves. They like cold water, at depths of 76 to 120 meters (250 to  400 ft). They are usually found in waters of 34-37°F (1-2°C) and  sometimes as low as 30°F (-1°C). Since they live in nearly freezing  waters, in order to keep their blood moving smoothly, their blood  contains a natural antifreeze.
