Hm! Well! It seems I have been compelled by "The Dark One" to post another fact! This time aboUt vampire sqUids! A fUn fact is that they are actUally their own family of cephalopods! Separate to that of octopi and sqUids. And. They are also the only species of cephalopod that does not primarily consUme live prey. They are detritivores! ・・・𝛾
Hm! I was thinking of posting a fact aboUt catfish. BUt! I saw something on my feed. And. Now I am compelled! SqUid facts! More sqUid facts!! There have only been twenty-nine reported sightings of non-lUsUs species of colossal sqUid. An elUsive beast! There are beings more elUsive than them. BUt. They are cephalopod only in appearance. ・・・𝛾
Platypus venom is strong enough to cause long-lasting pain that can last up to several weeks as well major swelling. You can not treat this pain through normal pain medication. You would need to be able to take nerve blockage medication to help with the pain. It also causes muscle wasting. Even as the pain goes away, there will still be swelling for a month. Do not worry, only adult males have such a thing. They are used during mating season to fight off other males. Please do not interact with one during mating session. #medicalfacts #animalfacts #bodyhorror
There's a few species that drink blood besides mosquitoes! I like medical leeches. It is fun to watch them 'cus whenever they served their purpose, they die as they are considered biowaste #animalfacts #medicalfacts #death
I am thinking aboUt sea Urchins! There are some species whose common names are "Boring Urchin". DUe to their habit of bUrrowing. Or boring. Into coral and rock sUrfaces. BUt. That is not the first definition yoU woUld think of when yoU hear the word "boring"! It is a little sad. They are not Uninteresting creatUres! They shoUld be called the "Exciting Urchin"! Instead. Haha! ・・・𝛾
Hm! I see! I have condUcted my own research. So I am no longer a knave. And. I have learned what “yUri” and “yaoi” is. So! That means I have a fact to share! PengUins can be yUri and yaoi. As can bottlenose dolphins! And. Some species of orca. Among others. ・・・𝛾
Hm! Warmbloods! That is a term Unfamiliar to me. Except in one circUmstance! There is a fish known as the Opah! Or. The Moonfish. And. It is the only known warm-blooded fish! I think it looks qUite cUte! ・・・𝛾
Another cephalopod fact! HUmboldt sqUids are very vicioUs hUnters. In some regions they are known as "diablos rojos". Or. Red devils. They have been known to attack scUba divers! Among their UsUal prey. I think. Having watched some of the feed tonight. We may have some "diablos oro" in the ecosystem! Haha. ・・・𝛾
Hm! I can smell the stale scent of blood in the water. On the feed tonight. Which can only mean! Time for a shark fact! It is a common misconception that sharks bite trolls becaUse they mistake them for seals in the water. In fact! It is a nibble of cUriosity! To identify an Unidentified object. When hUnting seals. The Great White will sUrface qUickly and attack violently! Attacks on trolls are less violent. In comparison. ・・・𝛾
Speaking of herring! Here is a fact for #FishingFriday! Schools of herring can occUpy Up to 4.8 cUbic kilometres in volUme! What a feast that woUld be! Haha. ・・・𝛾
Hm! I see there are discUssions aboUt love and dating tonight! Well. I do not know aboUt either. I love my friends! And. I love science. And many other things as well. Like. Sharing fUn facts! Some species of seahorses are known to mate for life! That is a somewhat well known fact aboUt them. BUt. So do the French angelfish! They are almost always observed in pairs. I think trUe love is foraging and defending yoUr feeding territory together forever! Haha. ・・・𝛾
While cephalopods are by far my favoUrites. I have an affinity for other sea creatUres as well! SUch as. The starfish! Did yoU know! If yoU cUt a starfish in half radially. It will regrow into two separate bUt identical organisms! The same coUld be said if yoU cUt it radially five times. To separate each limb with its own core. It makes yoU wonder. CoUld yoU theoretically prodUce infinite starfish? The answer is yes! If yoU want that responsibility for caring for so many. Haha! ・・・𝛾
Ah. Right! I had posted aboUt dUmbo octopUses the other night. BUt. Forgot to provide a fact as well! So! Did yoU know! They are very elUsive deep sea creatUres! And. Some species have only been sighted in a single recorded observation. A shame! I think we shoUld all be able to see these adorable cephalopods! ・・・𝛾
Ah. I see! Tonight we celebrate #FishingFriday! Well. How aboUt instead of a cephalopod fact. I bring yoU a fish fact! I really like eels! And. The moray eel is known for having a pharyngeal jaw. YoU know what they say! When its jaws open wide. And there's more jaws inside. That's a moray! Haha. ・・・𝛾
Hello! I have another fUn cephalopod fact for the feed! The signatUre rings of a blUe ringed octopUs illUminate whenever it is agitated or distressed! Like. A neon warning sign. Haha. One with enoUgh poison to kill 26 adUlt trolls! ・・・𝛾
One last cUttlefish fact! BecaUse. Two's company. BUt. Three's a crowd! Haha. CUttlefish ink Used to be Used for writing. The word 'sepia' is derived from the Latin word for cUttlefish! Nowanights it is more known for its cUlinary pUrposes. SUch as for risottos. Pastas. And. Even bread! It's very delicioUs! Umami flavoUr. They say. ・・・𝛾
Another cUttlefish fact! The giant cUttlefish is the largest known non-lUsUs species of cUttlefish. It's total length. With its tentacles oUtstretched. Can be Up to 100cm long! Or. 3'3 in feet and inches! That's a lot of cUttlefish. To cUddle! ・・・𝛾
Well! No one said no. So. Have a fUn fact! CUttlefish have three hearts! Two hearts are Used to pUmp blood to their gills. And. The third heart is Used to circUlate oxygenated blood throUghoUt their body. It also makes them three times as loveable! Haha. ・・・𝛾
