The Japanese spider crab is the world's largest living arthropod, known for its massive leg span of up to 12 feet (3.7 meters). These gentle, omnivorous scavengers live in the deep waters off Japan's Pacific coast and have a lifespan of up to 100 years. They are characterized by their orange bodies, long legs, and a tendency to decorate their shells with objects for camouflage.

They have a leg span of up to 12 feet (3.7 meters) from claw to claw, making it the largest arthropod.
Body: The carapace (body) can be up to 12 inches (30 cm) across and they can weigh up to 44 pounds (20 kg).

They have an orange body with white spots on their ten legs—eight walking legs and two large claws (chelipeds).

They are found on the seafloor along Japan's Pacific coast, from the continental shelf in depths of over 1,600 feet (500 meters).

Despite their intimidating appearance, they are gentle and calm. They are not strong swimmers and spend their time crawling on the seabed.

Younger crabs often attach sponges, algae, and other objects to their shells to blend in with their surroundings.

They eat a variety of food, including shellfish, dead animals, algae, and plants, using their powerful claws to pry open shells or scrape food from the ocean floor.

They can live for up to 100 years and migrate to shallower waters to breed in the spring. The Japanese government has banned fishing during this time to protect the population.

The bearded scorpion fish is a venomous, camouflage-expert fish found in the Western Indian Ocean and parts of the Pacific.

Its name comes from the fleshy skin flaps on its chin, which help it blend in with its environment on rocky coastlines, coral reefs, and shipwrecks.

As ambush predators, they use their quick reflexes to capture smaller fish and crustaceans, and their venomous spines can inflict a painful sting on humans.

They can be found in the Western Indian Ocean (including the Red Sea and Persian Gulf), and potentially wider in the Indo-Pacific. They live in tropical reefs, rocky coastlines, rubble, and sand near coral patches or on shipwrecks. Bearded scorpion fish are typically found at depths up to 30 meters, though some sources suggest up to 50 meters.

Their "beard" is fleshy, frilly skin flaps around the mouth and chin, which provide camouflage. The "beard" and mottled brown and reddish-brown coloration help it blend in with algae-covered rocks and corals.

They are ambush predators that use their camouflage to lie in wait and then quickly engulfs prey with its mouth. They primarily feed on smaller fish and crustaceans.

The bearded scorpion fish has venomous spines on its fins, which can deliver a painful sting if the fish is handled or stepped on. Divers and swimmers should exercise caution and avoid touching these fish.

Females release eggs into the water, which are then fertilized by males.Larvae. The eggs float as planktonic larvae before hatching and eventually settling to grow.

The salmon shark (Lamna ditropis) is a species of mackerel shark found in the North Pacific Ocean, known for its diet of salmon and its ability to maintain a body temperature above the surrounding water.

These sharks are apex predators that can grow over 10 feet long and are characterized by their dark, bluish-gray to black backs, white undersides, and blade-like teeth.

They are fast swimmers and are sometimes mistaken for great white sharks.

The salmon shark is found throughout the North Pacific, from the Bering Sea and Sea of Okhotsk to the Gulf of Alaska and down to Baja California, Mexico.

They inhabit both coastal and open ocean waters, preferring temperatures between 2.5 and 24 degrees Celsius.

They can grow to over 10 feet long and weigh more than 660 pounds.

They have a dark bluish-gray or black back, a white belly, and a heavy, spindle-shaped body.

Their teeth are moderately large, blade-like, and have small cusplets on the sides.

They can be distinguished from great white sharks by a secondary keel on their tail and dark patches on their belly.

As their name suggests, their diet primarily consists of salmon, but they also eat squid, sablefish, herring, and other fish.

Their predators include other sharks and possibly killer whales.

Salmon sharks are partial endotherms, meaning they can keep their body and stomach temperature warmer than the surrounding water, which helps them function in cold seas.

The coconut octopus (Amphioctopus marginatus) is a small, intelligent cephalopod known for its unique ability to use tools, such as coconut shells, for shelter. It lives in the tropical Indo-Pacific region and is also called the "veined octopus" due to the dark, vein-like patterns on its skin.

This species is a carnivore that hunts crabs, shrimp, and clams, and it can walk on two arms while carrying its protective shell.

The coconut octopus is famous for collecting and using objects like coconut shells, clamshells, and even discarded bottles to create a mobile shelter. It will dig up the shells, clean them, and then carry them to a new location.

It can walk on two of its arms in a bipedal motion, which is an unusual trait among octopuses. This allows it to carry objects while moving.

It has a reddish-brown body with white suckers and dark, vein-like patterns across its skin.

It is a carnivore that primarily eats crustaceans and mollusks, such as crabs, shrimp, and clams.

It lives in the shallow, sandy, and muddy areas of tropical waters in the Indo-Pacific region.

The coconut octopus is considered one of the most intelligent cephalopods, with a brain-to-body ratio similar to that of birds and mammals.

It can change its skin color and texture to blend in with its surroundings.

It emerges at dusk and dawn to forage, sometimes using its arms to probe holes in the mud for prey.

It uses its tool-use skills for defense, but it is also venomous, though its venom is not a threat to humans.

The rainbow parrotfish (Scarus guacamaia) is the largest herbivorous reef fish in the Atlantic and Caribbean, known for its vibrant colors and beak-like mouth. It plays a crucial role in coral reef ecosystems by grazing on algae, which prevents it from smothering corals.

These fish are found in the Gulf of Mexico and western Atlantic, can grow up to four feet long, and are considered Near Threatened due to habitat loss and overfishing.

Rainbow parrotfish have bright teal bodies with yellow, orange, and pink hues on the head, tail, and fins. They can reach up to 4 feet (1.2 m) in length and weigh up to 44 pounds (20 kg).

They are found in coral reef communities in the Gulf of Mexico and the western Atlantic Ocean, including the Caribbean and Florida Reef. They Live in coastal waters adjacent to the Yucatán Peninsula and the Caribbean Sea.

Rainbow parrotfish are herbivorous, feeding on algae that grows on corals and rocky surfaces. They use their beak-like mouth to scrape algae off the reef.

Large males defend territories and a harem of females. If a male dies, the most dominant female can change s*x to become the new male.

By grazing on algae, they help keep coral reefs healthy by preventing algae from smothering the corals. Like other parrotfish, their grinding of coral can contribute to the production of sand.

Populations have declined due to overfishing, habitat loss (coral reefs and mangroves), and being easy targets for spear fishermen. Rainbow parrotfish are fully protected in some areas, such as Belize, Guatemala, and the Bay Islands of Honduras.

The ribbon seal is a medium-sized seal from the North Pacific and Arctic oceans, easily recognized by the white "ribbons" of fur around its neck, flippers, and hips.

These seals are highly dependent on sea ice for breeding and raising their pups, which are born with a white coat that is shed after about a month.

Their diet shifts with age, from planktonic invertebrates as juveniles to fish and cephalopods as adults.

Adults have a dark body with striking white bands around the neck, flippers, and hips. Pups are born with a white, woolly coat called lanugo, which they shed after about a month.

Ribbon seals can grow up to 6 feet long and weigh between 200 and 330 pounds.

They inhabit the North Pacific and adjacent southern Arctic oceans, with a presence off the coast of Alaska. They rely on sea ice for breeding, molting, and raising their young.

They primarily eat shrimp and other small crustaceans, but also consume cephalopods (like squid and octopus) and fish.

Mating occurs in late May to June, coinciding with the melting of sea ice. The embryo has a delayed implantation, and the female gives birth to a single pup on the pack ice.

The mother cares for the pup for about four to six weeks, feeding it rich milk to help it grow quickly. The pup does not enter the water until its lanugo is completely shed and its blubber layer is developed.

The loss of sea ice due to global warming is the most significant threat to the species. Oil and gas development, shipping, pollution, and competition with fisheries for prey also pose risks. Past commercial hunting for their fur caused a significant drop in their population.
