White Spotted Jellyfish ? During Covid19, Quarantine 57 day, i have a lot time for me to edit and update picture. Phyllorhiza punctata is a species of jellyfish, also known as the floating bell, Australian spotted jellyfish, brown jellyfish or the white-spotted jellyfish. It is native to the western Pacific from Australia to Japan, but has been introduced widely elsewhere. It feeds primarily on zooplankton. True jellyfish go through a two-stage life cycle which consists of a medusa stage (adult) and a polyp stage (juvenile). In the medusa stage male jellyfish release sperm into the water column and the female jellyfish gathers the sperm into her mouth where she holds the eggs. Road to 1000 #photography @thepurpleroomz ?

14. I wish this didn’t surprise me.

 If you lift a kangaroos tail of the ground it can’t hop (but he will not be happy)

12. Some days this seems like it wouldn’t be a bad deal.

The male emu goes around and collects the eggs that the female lays, painstakingly moves them all to a nest, then sits on them until they hatch.

After they hatch he is their only caretaker.

The mother isn’t involved at all.

11. That’s a lot of spit!

The average human produces enough saliva over their life to fill 2 swimming pools.

10. They understand so much more than we give them credit for.

There once was a trade agreement between a pack of dolphins and fishermen that lasted several years.

There is a species of burrowing tarantula that lets tiny frogs live in their burrows.

This is pretty much how the domestication of cats went.

Tiny frogs are tarantula housecats.

7. Well that’s just adorable – all of Charlotte’s little spiderlings.

A baby spider is called a spiderling.
