Amazing!

Fun Fact Friday 🌊🦞

Did you know Jagged lobsters aren’t your typical lobster? They live hundreds of metres deep in the ocean, along remote underwater ridges and seamounts in the Pacific.

At depths of around 175 to 550 metres, they’re part of deep-sea ecosystems that are still largely unexplored by science. These environments might feel distant from us, but they’re home to complex communities of animals — and crustaceans like jagged lobsters play an important role within them.

There’s a whole hidden world beneath the surface… and we’re only just beginning to understand it. 💙 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0079661126000984

Ngā Kōura, crayfish need to be protected not exploited like unsentient objects born for the gratification and greed of humans!

New research shows lobster egg “scrubbing” is easier to detect, and harder to deny.

A UK study found lobsters don’t naturally shed their eggs in winter, meaning any signs of egg removal by humans during this time are highly unlikely to be natural.

This gives enforcement officers stronger evidence when tackling illegal practices that harm both individual animals and future populations.

Removing eggs isn’t just unlawful, it also prevents thousands of potential young from ever reaching the ocean.

Protect berried lobsters. Protect the next generation.

He kangarū ātaahua!

I went to take a photo of the sky yesterday morning but Uber was sure I was there to take her photo, so no matter where I moved the camera too, she'd move with it. I conceded defeat and this was my morning sky photo in the background.
I have to admit though, she is very photogenic 🥰

My Birthday Wish is that the animals will be protected in te moana and on Te whenua!
An exert of a poem by Denys Trussell-
The Rivers of Herakleitos at Waimakariri."
(i)

"Waimakariri,
music of headwaters
rushing cold
out of maountains.

The mingling,
teasing out
of many channels
forever in change.
There is no other way

for water in the endless
solution of its own nature."
