This way the remora receives plenty of oxygen without having to expend its own energy!
Keep an eye out for these flat-headed fish in photos!

Schooling can also help fish avoid predators because being in a large group can offer individuals protection from predators!

We also know that sharks and rays are critical for the health of our oceans and if a species is at risk of extinction, we should not be eating it.
If you agree please sign our petition!! https://t.co/LAQKHpO83p

Queensland's tourism minister is advocating to destroy the very species that are an essential part of a healthy reef ecosystem! Shark culling is NOT ocean conservation!

which will offer them more international regulation and hopefully help bring their populations back from the brink of being lost forever!

Better to try and fail, than forever wonder what might have been. Not that there’s really any failing, because in the journey you will love and be loved, get nearer your goal #NakaweHumans #Bisbee #SayNoToFishTournaments #StopKillingMarlins #MarlinsWorthAlive

Have you ever seen this strange creature? Most people haven’t actually, as they’re rarely seen alive!

It’s an oarfish which is a large, elongated, pelagic lampriform fish belonging to the Regalecidae family.

[Nakawe Project @NakaweProject]

They are known to eat tiny plankton and that’s why they don’t have real teeth and instead feed with gill rakers to catch their plankton prey. #fish #oarfish #roosterfish #deepsea #ribbonfish #education #wildlife #nextgeneration #oceanconservation #community #nakawe #nakaweproject

[Nakawe Project @NakaweProject]

Unfortunately, not a lot is known about the conservation status of this species as they’re rarely seen alive.
Makes you wonder what else is out there, doesn’t it?
