    The ocean pout (Zoarces americanus) is an eelpout in the family Zoarcidae.

    It is found in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of New England and eastern Canada.

    The fish has antifreeze proteins in its blood, giving it the ability to survive in near-freezing waters.

    They are bottom living species typically found on soft substrates of sand and mud but which can be found in rocky areas too, they occur at depths between 0 and 388 m (0 and 1,273 ft)

    Ocean Pout have an antifreeze protein that allows them to live in near freezing waters off the coast of New England and Canada.

    Scientists have succeeded in taking genes from ocean pout and implanting them into Atlantic Salmon.

    The promoter for the antifreeze protein gene is used in conjunction with a growth hormone gene from Chinook Salmon, which leads to a higher concentration of the growth hormone in the blood, causing the genetically modified salmon to grow much more rapidly.
