1. This Tiny, big eyed animal swims in the deep cold waters off New Zealand Its bright Orange
skin is less striking in its dark ,bluish enviroment .It grows slowly and may live more than 100
years. It used to be called" slim head "until it become a popular meal.
Its an orange roughy
2.This animal's legs can grow to be a foot long . you probably see its smaller relatives in bathrooms .
Why is this animal much bigger ? One reason is the chilly water in which it lives . Cold water contains more dissolved oxygen. More oxygen in your blood means you can support a larger body.After this eight-legged animal catches its prey, it sucks out it juices.

ReplyDeleteI'm pleased you had a look around the National History Museum website. It's pretty cool isn't it! This must be like a guess who game. We have some pretty amazing creatures on our planet don;t we? Do you know what marine biology is?
ReplyDeleteHello Sahish.
ReplyDeleteThe underwater world holds as many beautiful creatures as the world that we walk on.I know that when you go to a fish and chip shop,you can order orange roughy.
The spider looks pretty amazing.I think I would rather have this one crawl around the house but I don't like the fact that it sucks out the juices of it's prey.
Would you like to go snorkelling in the sea to see the creatures that live beneath the waves?.I would.
