Water, water...

January 16, 2005

Mr. Jack and I have been on a sea creature kick lately.

Mr. Jack found an incredible creature website. Look like it's a forum that is part of a Russian website about diving in Thailand. Make sure to check out the photo of the Shimaera pup. Another photo I enjoyed was the red, spiny, crab-like creature and the name given: "..." haha. An article on the Australian Government National Oceans Office website identifies the creature as a Stone Crab. By google searching for "deep sea creatures," I found a forum on ConceptArt.org with the same photos as the Russian site. Weird! And an article on the Practical Fishkeeping site reveals that a hoax tsunami email has been going around, claiming that the photos are of creatures that washed up on Thai shores after the tsunami. In reality, the photos are of creatures that were collected during a 2003 study.

A link worth checking out: the deep sea creature collection at the Monterey Bay Aquarium
