The members of a pod hunt together, attacking even very large prey and then sharing it. The pod members always protect the young, the sick and the injured. Orcas grow to be about 27-33 feet long, and weigh more than 8,000-12,000 pounds. The male orca is larger than the female. They are the largest member of the dolphin family.
The mahi-mahi or common dolphinfish[1] (Coryphaena hippurus) is a surface-dwelling ray-finned fish found in off-shore temperate, tropical and subtropical waters worldwide. It is one of only two members of the Coryphaenidae family, the other being the pompano dolphinfish. It is also known as the dolphin,[2][3] which causes confusion with the more widely-known marine mammals called dolphins. Mahi-mahi means very strong in Hawaiian. In other languages the fish is known as lampuga, lampuka, rakingo, calitos, maverikos or dorado.
The tentacles of a jellyfish in some cases can grow to a massive length of 100 feet! The longest jellyfish ever found was in Massachusetts with a tentacle span of 120 feet! Located
The shark is to be said that the length of the shark is about four times the size of a full size great white shark and about the width of a car. I can prove that the megladon is real. The videos on the shark have shown two videos that seamed plausible. The first video showed that a great white shark that had been caught and killed, but was a lot smaller then the actual megladon
The plastron and other under parts have a faded yellow ochre appearance. Hatchling loggerheads (like all young sea turtles) are cute and engaging animals. Extensive ground and aerial surveys as recently as 1990 put loggerhead nest estimates at 50,000-70,000 per year in the Southeast U.S. This number represents approximately 35-40% of the world population of loggerhead turtles. The hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) is a critically endangered sea turtle belonging to the family Cheloniidae.
The pattern of the migration of the eye is genetically determined. Some flounders have the eyes and coloration on their former right side (family Pleuronectidae); other flounders have the eyes and coloration on their former left side (family Bothidae). (Peterson) Included among the approximately 100 species of right-eyed flounders are the European flounder, a marine and freshwater food and sport fish of Europe that grows to a length of about 1.5 feet (0.5 meter) and a weight of about 6 pounds (3 kilograms). Other popular food fish of this family are the starry flounder, a North Pacific species that averages about 20 pounds (9 kilograms) in weight, and the winter flounder, an American Atlantic fish that grows
Fish becomes sexually mature when two to three years old with about 30 cm length. Eggs may be obtained many times from the same flounder female during its spawning cycle, at intervals of two to eight days. A female spawner with about 2.5 to 4 kg can lay a total of about 3 million eggs in the spawning season, through successive batches of 40 000 to 450 000 eggs each. The hatching of fertilized eggs occurs after about 63 hours at 14 to 16°C producing fragile yolk sac larvae from 2.1 to 2.3 mm long with no functioning eye or mouth. It may be of interest to know that during larval development, when the water temperature is of 20°C, larvae become females and in order to increase the proportion of males, water temperature should be maintained between 15 and
When a juvenile reaches a length of 5 inches their colors completely change. Only the emperor angelfish in the western part of the pacific develop a strand that extends from their dorsal fin. Male emperor angelfish usually live and mate in a specific area making them territorial. Males tend to defend a territory where two or more females also live. When mating both male and female change color.
Olive Ridleys get their name from the coloring of their heart-shaped shell, which starts out gray but becomes olive green once the turtles are adult. Hatchlings are dark gray with a pale yolk scar, but appear all black when wet. Carapace length ranges from 37 to 50 mm. Olive Ridleys are omnivorous, meaning that they consume a varied diet from both plant and animal sources. Distribution Although Olive Ridleys spend time in the open ocean, they also forage in coastal waters and estuaries.Olive Ridley turtles are found only in warmer waters, including the southern Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans.
The Gharial there is less than 400 and the adults of the critically endangered gharial survive in the world today the gharials, which once almost became extinct and then the Gharial helped to boost of population and a critically endangered species.and year and than 2,000 gharial the crocodiles and the (Gavialis gangeticus) hand Hatched and then importantly, and more than 400 adults and the critically endangered gharial and the survive hand world today . Gharial,and they are almost became the extinct because the hunters for the valuable and skins, are today. The gharial (gavialis gangeticus), also the gavial the fish-eating.
