Came here for the Science but staying for the sharks🦈
Did you know you’re more likely to be bitten by a New Yorker than a shark? Saw that on the internet so it must be true.

This is extraordinary behaviour of this smooth ray. Expelling its intestines violently to help get rid of anything it cannot pass. I shot this in Tasmania this year and we think it’s the first known documentation of this species doing this behaviour. Manta rays are known to do this. #marinelife

To me Faco was a NYer out there just doing the daily NYC gritty grind while bringing out the best in us. For a bird who had only known captivity for most of his life, he showed resilience in the face of the unknown. He gave us hope.Perhaps Flaco meant something to you too. #Flaco chng.it/sPtWLLWJSg

I always root for the NY teams, and I’m no different today. But that’s ok, because clearly there is no owl more superb than NYC’s own Flaco. Happy Superb Owl Sunday!

'Miraculous birth' expected at NC lab from stingray with no mate, possibly impregnated by shark

During king tides, we experience the greatest difference in height between low tide and high tide in a 24-hour period.

Their pepperoni red color is camouflage along the deep sea floor, since longer (red and orange) wavelengths of light are absorbed much higher in the water column.
