Whales And Its Representative Species

Image
We all know that whales are the largest water inhabitants living on the earth. Despite living in the water, they need to air breathe just like humans. Blowholes located on top of their head makes them breathe in. They can live underwater for longer periods of time and retain themselves on krill, crabs, and small fish. Although there are 90 whale representative species. Humpback, beluga, blue whale, fin, bowhead, and North Atlantic right whale are most commonly known. Humpback whales Humpback whales are known for their melody songs. And travel through all the oceans in the world. They regularly propel through the water and land with a tremendous splash.  Can grow up to lengths of: between 15 to 19 meters Weight: up to 40 tons Life Span: up to 50 years Gestation Period: 11 months Condition:  Least Concern Beluga Whales Belugas are the sociable mammals that feed on shrimps, crabs, and small fish. Their bulbous forehead known as melon is capable of ...

Sea Urchins in the Mediterranean Sea can Withstand Hot, Acidic Seas

Image
In bubbling vents off the coast of Ischia, a volcanic island in the Gulf of Naples lives a curious population of black sea urchins. For at least 30 years, they have lived in these low pH, carbon dioxide-rich environments -- a proxy for climate change-induced acidic oceans. Now, University of Sydney researchers have determined they can also tolerate unprecedentedly warm sea temperatures -- another climate change by-product. This means that these urchins, already one of the most abundant animals in the Mediterranean Sea, will likely plunder further afield as oceans continue to warm and become more acidic. The researchers have described their findings in Biology Letters, a publication of the Royal Society. The Mediterranean Sea is warming 20 percent faster than the global average, with predicted warming of up to 5.8°C by 2100. "Given their ability to withstand a large temperature range, these sea urchins are likely to continue spreading throughout the Mediterranean Sea, with serious ...

Sea Turtles: The Endangered Species

Image
Sea Turtles have outlived almost all the prehistoric animals once they shared the planet. Marine turtles inhabit the oceans open waters and coastal habitats, feeding on jellyfish and other aquatic plants and animals. They are the live representatives of a group of reptiles that traveled our sea for more than 100 million years.  Importance of Sea Turtles These sea turtles have been living for more than 100 million years and maintaining a fundamental link in the marine ecosystem. They maintain the health of seagrass beds and coral reefs that benefit the valuable species such as lobster, shrimp, and tuna. Having outlived million years they can hold their breath up to five hours. They also transfer the vital nutrients from oceans to beaches and dunes. The seven extant species are The Green, Loggerhead, Kemp's Ridley, Olive Ridley, Hawksbill, Flatback, and Leatherback, which are endangered. Five of the seven species are found in tropical and subtropical waters. The other two sp...
