It grows to 60cm long and sticks two thirds of his body out of the ground when it wants to eat zooplankton (no idea what a zooplankton is) .

Zooplankton are basically the little animal plankton, as opposed to Phytoplankton, which are the little plant plankton. I'm sure its much more complicated, but this is the extent of my learnin's.


SCIENCE!

calenlass:
Yeah, zooplankton is things like krill and a whole bunch of larvae, like jellies, crustaceans, sponges, corals, etc etc. Phytoplankton is largely algaes.

McTaggart:
Ok, there are two sharks which are awesome in this hemisphere (three if I pay the whale shark, simply because it's huuuge).

1. Wobbegong: The wobbegong pretends to be a carpet. Biggest I've seen was a little over a metre. Don't poke it?



2. Port Jackson Shark: The Port Jackson is universally considered the prettiest shark in the world. FACT. I think they tend to be about two feet long. Two feet of cuuute.

Elizzybeth:


The Portuguese Man of War: beautiful, dangerous, and not a jellyfish.  Why you should be aware of it?  Its tentacles can be up to 30 feet long, and can sting for weeks after having come detached from the body.
