Time for something completely different #Coolcreature
Sneaky octopus!
Today's Cool Creature, probably one of the most beautiful of them all: the blanket octopus. Happy Thursday, everyone!

Today's cool creature is often considered a pathogen: Naegleria fowleri, or, the brain-eating amoeba! (Pathogen or parasite?!). Infection is VERY rare, about 30 cases in the US in the past ten years. But still, learning about it is a fascinating read!

I love featuring creatures that usually gross people out! Today's cool creature is the pinworm. A human parasite that is mostly seen in kids and is treatable. It very rarely infests the appendix. Here's one such case - pretty amazing, huh? :)

Enterobius (pinworm) infestation within appendix. Momma worm is pregnant...Look at all the eggs! #Pathology #GIpath pics: @smlungpathguy
Today's Cool Creature is the ornate ghost pipefish! Not only beautiful, but also, it really blends in with its surroundings, making it tricky to find!

This strange and beautiful thing is called an ornate ghost pipefish. A living splash of psychedelic art
Today's Cool Creature is this cute little jellyfish.. who looks like it should be a companion character on Plants vs Zombies! ;)

Today's Cool Creature is this gorgeous snail that spends its whole life swimming. Cue a John Williams soundtrack for this one! ;)

The pteropods are a fascinating group of snails that spend their entire lives swimming or drifting in the ocean and never touching the bottom. #PteropodPtuesday

After a weekend of snow, it's a beautifully sunny day here, so today's Cool Creature is the sun-shaped Heliozoa! Check out Drew's great video below. :)

I have a really busy day tomorrow, so I'm posting this guy ahead of time. The mosquito is Friday's Cool Creature! The word "mosquito" is Spanish for "little fly"! (Wikipedia) I can't help it: I find our pests really interesting. :)

Most mosquitoes weigh 30 times less than a raindrop. HT @PeccaryNotPig
Today's Cool Creature - ok, I know, I've featured the mite before, but I'm doing it again. They seem gross at first, I know, but they grow on ya (um, literally?). ;) I've read that some species of #oribatid mites use hydrogen cyanide for defense!

Today's Cool Creature is this little guy. What's most fascinating is the info that Rafael posted below! Even the smallest of creatures help us in some way.

Today's Cool Creature is not actually a creature. But, it's worth a mention because they are COOL: viruses. Can't see them with a regular microscope, but they are absolutely fascinating. Anyone have book recommendations on viruses?
#coolcreature #virus
Viruses, #1 predators on #Earth devour 20% of all ocean #Bacteria EACH DAY! The amazing ancient #SCAVENGER is highly disliked by us, greatest modern predator. Viruses, so different from everything, could have arrived from outer space & merit their own branch in the tree of life.
Today's Cool Creature is the Phronima, a marine creature that is thought to have inspired the film, Alien!

Today's Cool Creature: beautiful baby starfish! I would love to see some of these in real-time later on!
#starfish #coolcreature
Cute baby starfish alert. 2 species in the samples, Luidia sarsi (5 arms) & L. ciliaris (7 arms). As plankton they have a larval body & are known as bipinnaria larvae. Then the juvenile βrudimentβ develops tube feet, detaches or absorbs the larval body and sinks to the seabed.
Today's cool creature is the Planarian worm. You think tardigrades are tough? Check out these guys! Of course, they probably don't get as much love 'cause they're not super cute. They're not cute at all. But, they regenerate, which makes them super cool!

Today's Cool Creature has to be the glow-in-the-dark millipede. (That's not its scientific name, but let's pretend). I'm pretty sure that if I were surrounded with these, I'd feel like I'm having an Alice in Wonderland experience. ;)
#glowworm #millipede #coolcreature
So my backyard is full of glowy millipedes
Diatoms - today's Cool Creature!! I don't know if they're actually creatures. Are they creatures? Either way, they're in my top five favourites. Have a look!
