Seriously smart seagulls 🌊
You might think seagulls are a pest.
But really, they deserve some respect!
They can spot your ice cream from nearly 2 kilometres away.
They'll remember a face, especially if you've fed them before - read more about this in an article by the University of Otago.
And they'll remember your food preferences: If they've seen you eat from a red package, they'll choose a red package too - a University of Sussex article explains.
Maybe it's time to take those seagulls seriously!

They'll remember my face and food preferences?
I don't know if that's earned my respect or awoken my fear!
Maybe they'd make good waiters... except they'd eat everyone's food before it got to their mouths.

With a puffy and prickly body, the spiny star (Hippasteria sp.) is easy to spot on the deep seafloor. 🌟
These stars roam the seafloor searching for a delicious dinner, and a hungry Hippasteria can be quite particular when it comes to feeding. For some, sea pens or anemones are their sole preference. Here in our backyard, spiny stars seek out prey that is particularly prevalent in the Monterey Bay and beyond: deep-sea corals.
While some corals have evolved protective stinging sweeper tentacles to deter hungry predators, spiny stars are determined in their quest for a nutritious feast. They use tiny tube feet to scale a towering coral. When they find a good spot to stop, they wrap their arms around the stalk to hang on tight, then extrude their stomach out of their mouth to devour the juicy coral polyps.
Hippasteria are important in restructuring the habitats where they live. As they leave dead coral skeletons behind, homes for new animals are created. This natural turnover keeps the community healthy and helps foster diversity among the fishes and invertebrates that live there. Watch our newest video to learn more: https://lnkd.in/gd8c3UUD.
