Marine Critters

I’m a marine biologist, and I’m fascinated by the variety of amazing variety of creatures that can be found in the marine environment (I’d be a lousy marine biologist if I wasn’t!). Most people are fairly unaware of some of the amazing animals that live in the oceans, so I thought I’d try and spread the love of marine organisms, and thus I started a series of posts called Marine Critter Thursday, where every Thursday heralds a new post about some marine creature. For my own ease of reference I thought I’d stick up a list of which animals I’ve posted about here.

• Sand bubbler crabs
• Cone shells
• Leafy sea dragon
• Mimic octopus
• Predatory tunicate
• Basking sharks
• Zombie bone eating snot worms
• Ice worm
• Marine iguanas
• Walrus
• Barnacles
• Dumbo octopus
• Giant isopod
