* Deep Sea Dwellers: Blobfish live in the deep ocean, making them incredibly difficult to study.
* Limited Research: Their habitat is extreme, making it challenging and expensive to conduct research on them.
* No Census: There is no formal census or population count for blobfish.
* Threat Status: The IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) does not currently have a conservation status for the blobfish.
While we don't know the exact population, it's important to understand that the blobfish is vulnerable due to its limited habitat and the threats of bycatch (being caught accidentally in fishing nets) and climate change.
