This is what BABY JELLYFISH look like!
They are so small they fit in a drop of water and are shaped just like snowflakes.

EXTREMELY RARE footage of the elusive box jellyfish Chirodectes. Larger than a soccer ball, this jelly is a true ocean mystery, and this video is one of the only in existence, filmed off the coast of Papua New Guinea in 2021.

Thinking of all my people up north today, and I mean North of I-10 😂 Stay warm!
@edwin@nerdculture.de 😂 That's one of our fishy friends in the lab right now!
I introduced myself yesterday, but now I'd like to introduce you to my pup! This is Hidalgo the itty bitty pitty. He was named after the Disney movie about the horse, since he looks like a painted horse and because he's an underdog as a pitbull. One of his favorite foods is raw kale!

Yellow-eyed rockfish - Sebastes Ruberrimus
Common to the coastal shoals of the Pacific Coast from Baja California to Alaska, this brightly-colored fish is commonly known known to local fishmongers and chefs as as "red snapper." The yelloweye is one of the world's longest-lived fish species, and is cited to live to a maximum of 114 to 120 years of age.
@nomdeb Thanks! I'm finding new people here that I didn't know on Twitter which is fun!
@BWWilliamsLab we usually have a bunch in the lab for teaching experiments. This one is gravid! One of my PhD students is raising one of the eggs that fell off.

@BWWilliamsLab cool video! Being in Louisiana now I have a whole new appreciation for crayfish (I mean, crawfish), including their diversity!

Last summer, Dr. Adrian Smith joined me in the field to capture video of the excavation of an undescribed species of burrowing crayfish. Three hours of digging (we were in the middle of a dry spell), untold numbers of mosquito bites, and a wee bit of caked on mud later I got one. And Adrian’s footage of it was magical; check out the video on his AntLab YouTube channel here:

@kacorn ooo great idea! I'm teaching a Biomechanics course next semester, this could be a good discussion!
