  3. Correct!  I hear those fuckers make terrible noise in the middle of the night and can't walk in straight lines.
     
    A strange creature indeed. :(

  6. Please refrain from solving these.  Im supposed to lol.
     
     
     My apologies, ive been a busy little bee.  
     
    #1 is a brazillian tapir, animals closely related to rhinos
    #2 Is a hagfish, the exact species is impossible to pinpoint from an image, but i'm gonna say it's a pacific hagfish. 
    #3 is a hummingbird Hawk-moth, a species of sphinx
    #4 is retarded, lol
     
     
     
    Difficult to say, though considering the large size long antennae, i'd say it's some sort of cerambycid, better known as 'longhorns'.
     
      I'd say it's possible of the Genus 'Tragosoma'.  Common name: "Prionid beetle"
     
  7. Yep! they nest in long leaf pines in a preserve behind my house.
     
  8. Bravo!  I take it back!
     
    It is a hagfish, those things are fuckwits. 
     
  9. they are very important for the health of the ocean, however, cleaning the ocean floor of corpses and diseased dying fish.
     
     Some people argue they arent even fish, and are closer to tunicates and lancelets, both of which are chordates, but not vertebrates.  
     
  10. Indeed, I saw a documentary where they showed thousands of them feeding on a whale carcass at the bottom of the ocean.  They also secrete slime, as if they weren't fucking gross enough already.
     
    I could live without them tbh, sharks also eat whale carcass and they're way cooler.
     
  11. I personally think Hagfish are really amazing, even more amazing IMO, is the 'Bone-devourer' worm

      Each female has hundreds of microscopic 'dwarf-males' that never develop past the larval stage.

  13. Not all turtles are tortoises, but all tortoises are turtles. :p


    Tortoises are turtles in the family Testudinidae.
