Sea Hare
The Sea Hare is a type of marine mollusk belonging to the order Anaspidea. These soft-bodied creatures are known for their unique, elongated shape and can be found in shallow coastal waters around the world. They are often recognized by their large, ear-like structures called parapodia, which help them swim and move through the water.
Sea Hares primarily feed on algae and are known for their ability to release a purple ink when threatened, similar to the way some cephalopods do. This ink can serve as a defense mechanism, allowing them to escape from predators. Their vibrant colors and interesting behaviors make them a fascinating subject for marine biology studies.
