You see it's quite simple: if they call the earth Gaia, it's fantasy. If they call it Terra, that's sci-fi

If there's one vampire, it's horror. If there's 100+ and they have politics, it's urban fantasy.

[Ducktales theme plays] Rattail! Woo ooh!

Rattails (aka grenadiers) are common and curious deep-sea denizens that will investigate any disturbance on or around the seafloor—which means they sometimes photobomb our colleagues at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute.

Fish as fluid as the ocean. 🌊

All California sheephead start life as female and move through an array of colors and body shapes as they mature. Some female adults may transition to male as social and environmental factors shift, balancing the delicate ratio of individuals in their population.

While male California sheephead are largest and easiest to identify at a glance, a closer look at the lively waters of our Kelp Forest exhibit reveals a variety of female sheephead swimming through these fascinating life stages. 

Stream our Kelp Forest Cam and find peace in the beauty of a thriving underwater community. 🫶🌈

This video depicts a moment that is nearly impossible to observe: a sperm whale surfacing with a giant squid clenched between its teeth. These predators hunt at depths exceeding 800 meters, where light does not penetrate, and only biosonar directs the pursuit. Consequently, clear surface images are exceedingly rare.

This is, factually, the first footage of this that we have ever gotten. This has never been observed by a human being before in recorded history. The only reason we knew these whales ate those squids before was the beaks of the squids found in the stomachs of dead whales, and the battle scars on whales consistent with fighting giant squids.

My favorite thing about this clip is that, in the original uncropped footage, you can see her calf is right beside her, ascending from the depths along with her. Whale calves don't dive until they're taught by their mothers. It is very likely that this footage is of a mother whale teaching her calf to hunt on one of its very first dives.

When I saw this footage for the first time, I cried a little tbh.

Throwing all my Beetlejuice AU stuff into one post

It would take place loosely after the events of the first movie, a few years past, Lydia’s still in high school. one day she comes home and the Maitlands have vanished, leaving no indication of being ready to pass on. Lydia forges on into the Netherworld to rescue them, but being alive quickly brings trouble. She begrudgingly teams up with the only person who can help her navigate the spirit world and save her friends… BEETLEJUICE!

I have a whole B plot for Delia and Otho, but I want to actually draw some stuff for that before I share what that is

vampires are so full of shit. "oh the human race is beneath us, you're just livestock to us" I don't think you know what livestock is. do you feed us? care for us? protect us from predators? no. you just slink around dark alleys and ambush people. that's not what a higher being does. that's a bottom feeder. a parasite. karate punches your head off
