@dduane was a bit vague about presents...
...but I remembered she'd been muttering about a plushie she'd seen on Tumblr.
She knew about - in fact the courier gave her - the smaller one, but I managed to intercept the bigger and hide it until Christmas Morning.
Then she and me and Ed and Eddie all had a nice cup of tea and some bikkies.

As you do.

Today is Wet Beast Wednesday!
Today’s wet beast is: Pipefish
Tumblr media
Olive’s wet beast fact: You’re probably thinking that these worm-on-a-string lookin ass creatures look like straightened seahorses. That’s bc they are part of the Syngnathidae family with Seahorses and Sea Dragons. Funky!
Stay tuned for more Wet Beast Wednesdays!

Most sharks are negatively buoyant, meaning they naturally sink in water. However, in 2015, two deep sea sharks - the bluntnose sixgill shark (top) and the prickly shark (bottom) - were discovered to be positively buoyant, meaning they naturally float in water.
This could have one of two purposes: aiding stealth hunting by enabling them to ambush prey from below by motionlessly rising towards them; or for migrating to warmer waters closer to the surface at night to warm up the muscles (to then actively swim back down to colder waters during the day).

The Sea Creature of the Day is the Frilled Shark!!!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
man i know i say this about so many sea creatures but like... man these might be my favorite sharks. i love rhem so much. kinda like Coelacanths, frilled sharks are considered living fossils because of their anatomy which more so resembles certain ancient sharks rather than more modern sharks :3
vaguely creepy looking, but simultaneously adorable and so fucking cool 🥰🥰🥰🥰

goblin sharks mature at approximately 16 years old and can live up to 60 years.
goblin sharks are named for their likeness to mythical goblins that appear in Japanese folklore.
goblin sharks have wrinkled, translucent skin, and through this, it's their blood that gives them a murky, pink or purplish-grey tinge. (THEY. ARE. PINK. 😨😨)
goblin sharks are a rare species of deep-sea shark. sometimes called a "living fossil", it is the only extant representative of the family mitsukurinidae, a lineage some 125 million years old. mitsukurina owstoni, the living goblin shark, or elfin shark, is a very rare shark to catch.
