The yeti crab is an interesting creature when it's around its surroundings. The yeti's association with their bacteria is more developed than its relatives. Each species has its own system, but one has a comb with which it can extract its food from its setae! The radiation of the closely related species seems to have been in the Coenozoic. This means that, 65 million years ago, as mammals began to take over on land, the types of crab represented now by the yetis began taking over hydrothermal vents and similar niches from a lost generation of previous inhabitants. The yeti crab has a very distinct look. The Yeti Crab is a crustacean that was first discovered in 2005 by Michel Segonzac, a marine life scientist, that saw this unusually “hairy” …show more content…
Yeti Crabs are often found in depths of more than 2000 meters, and are common on and around hydrothermal vents of the Pacific-Antarctic Ridge. Most species do not live where the yeti crab lives.
The Yeti crab is a very interesting creature compared to its surroundings..They assist the creature in detoxifying poisonous minerals from the water that are often emitted by the hydrothermal vents around it. I guess you could say the Yeti Crab doesn’t treat others the way it would like to be treated. It essentially eats the stuff that help it survive.The setae that covers the majority of its body often contains heavy sheets of chemosynthetic bacteria that the Yeti Crab can eat whenever hungry.
The yeti crab is a very recent discovery. Nothing is known about its reproduction habits, due to its place of living.
Overall, the yeti crab is a very interesting creature. Not much is known about it however. We learned many things about the yeti crab, and basically, all there is known about the yeti crab. I hope you have realized that there are truly creatures that still need to be learned about I hope in the future, this animal gains more exposure. And I hope all weird animals alike gain the same thing,
Throughout the animal kingdom, adaptations take place continuously and even the smallest of changes can leave a significant impact. Examples can be seen within any plant or animal. One example would include sea turtles, specifically, the Loggerhead Turtles. These turtles are native to the Indian, Atlantic, and Pacific Oceans as well as the Mediterranean Sea (Deurmit L 2007). They thrive in either temperate or tropical climates and can live in a myriad of biomes (Deurmit L 2007). These biomes include the pelagic, reef, coastal, and brackish water (Deurmit L 2007). Loggerhead turtles are omnivores and can eat anything from insects to aquatic crustaceans, to macro algae (Deurmit L 2007). According to Deurmit (2007) Caretta caretta is classified into Animalia Kingdom, Chordata Phylum, Vertebrata Subphylum, Reptilian Class, Testudines’ Order,
The scientific name given to the blue crab was derived from Latin and Greek: Calli, beautiful; nectes, swimmer; and sapidus, savory. Thus, a literal transition might be the beautiful, savory swimmer. The blue crab is an important and interesting species. The blue crab is a species whose life history involves a complex cycle of planktonic, nektonic, and benthic stages which occur throughout the marine environment in a variety of habitats. The blue crab is one of the more abundant estuarine invertebrates and supports important commercial and recreational fisheries along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.
When Spring rain starts, land crabs know that the signal for mating season. Land crabs mate in underground burrows. Millions of female crabs hurry toward the ocean to drop off their fertilized eggs in the water and return to the swamp. Mullet and other fish eat the little crabs that hatch from the eggs. The baby crabs that survive the first few weeks of their lives, will join the adults in nearby forests. Unfortunately, crossing a road is part of the journey to the ocean. Therefore, many drivers find that their tires have been punctured and many crabs have been run over. The crabmeat is toxic to people, but animals seem to love it. Especially the endangered Cuban crocodile. Cuba's land crab population doesn't seem to be in danger. Officials
The original turtle has long been, and continues to be, a major evolutionary enigma. The oldest turtle clearly identified the turtle. Since turtles appear suddenly in the fossil record, the latest data is not changed with the creation of the event is followed by diversification and
The ‘Purple Shore Crab’ (Hemigrapsus nudus) is a tiny crustacean that inhabits the mid to low zone of the Rocky shore. This location is an intertidal zone, meaning that the organism lives in a very harsh environment. These crabs, as the name suggests, are purple in colour, with reddish-purple spots on their claws. They are known as decapods, because they have 10 legs (the first pair is modified into claws), and unlike many other crab species they do not have hairs on these legs. Crabs are invertebrates meaning that they have a hard exoskeleton (shell), they are also cold blooded meaning that they take on the temperature from their surroundings, as opposed to trying to maintain a general temperature (warm blooded). Purple Shore Crabs are omnivores, they scavenge for dead organic matter, plants

Seaworld is a giant marine life theme park. The greatest attraction to these many theme park would be those killer whales. In fact, these killer whales are the face of the park. As gigant as these mammals are, seaworld is keeping them in some pretty tight quarters. Mr. Jett and Mr.Ventre says “Wild killer whales can swim a hundred miles daily as they socialize, forage, communicate, and breed. In stark contrast, with little horizontal or vertical space in their enclosures, captive orcas swim only limited distances, with most spending many hours surface resting.” The animals don't have the freedom they need. Also when taking the whales out of their natural habit the whales tend to be depressed and not as heath in that situation. They need their freedom in the big ocean blue. Bring them into the small living units, breeding whales in captivity all for the entertainment of humans. At young ages the calves are taken away from their mothers on to a new seaworld park. Mothers of the calves have even been seen denying their offspring.
In this slideshow I will talk about their habitat what they eat and their predators and how the life cycle would stop like if there is a miss card for a deck of cards.
The name of our organism is Deformis stilla. Deformis stilla is translated to ugly blobfish. Our organism is found in the deep seas of the Dead Sea. Our organism is a carnivore and obtains its food by dangling the light attached to its head in front of itself which guides the prey towards its mouth. It moves by fins which enable it glide like a stingray through the water, and it also pushes air out of its body to propel itself. The organism digests its food by taking in the entire fish or prey it catches and chews it with its razor sharp teeth. The sharp teeth come out of its mouth, similar to a piranha.
The Burgess Shale Fauna is a fauna that was constructed based on a group of fossils that were initially found, in the Burgess Shale area in the Canadian Rockies (Gould, 1989). They are a very important group of fossils as “modern multicellular animals make their first unprotected appearance in the fossil record some 570 million years ago” through this group (Gould, 1989, pp. 24). Moreover the Burgess Shales are known to have preserved the soft parts of animals enabling us to get a better understanding of life at the time.
The yeti is said to be located in the himalayas above the snow line. Many people have tried to capture it but they have all come up short handed. Large footprints have been found there too, but people say they were either made by a human or are a bear's footprint. “Given the evidence i have examined, i’m sure there is something out there yet to be discovered.”(Meldrum). A professor of anatomy. For decades, people have been interested in the myth of bigfoot. Sightings of a tall, furry, beastly creature have been caught on camera many times, but no definite proof is out there. And the reports just
Made famous from the Disney movie Finding Nemo, the anglerfish is quite a unique species. They are equipped with a unique organ that produces a small source of light to lure in unsuspecting fish, and snatch them up with their nightmarish teeth. What most people don’t know about these odd creatures is the sickening way in which they reproduce. The digestive system of the male anglerfish removes itself, and attaches to a female to feed.
The Mysterious Giant Squid About 80 percent of the Earth is covered in water. With the majority of life on this planet residing in the liquid we like to call the essence of life, we as humans represent a minority on this planet. Much of the underwater world remains a mystery to us, with the giant squid being one of the greatest mysteries of them all. How close are we to actually solving the mystery of this deep water giant? For the first known citation of one of these creatures, you would have to go back to November of 1861, when crew members of the French dispatch steamer Alecton spotted what appeared to be a large sea monster off the coast of the Canary Islands.
Mollusks happen in practically every territory found on Earth, where they are frequently the most obvious creatures. While most are found in the marine condition, reaching out from the intertidal to the most profound seas, a few noteworthy gastropod clades live transcendently in freshwater or earthbound living spaces.
