What Sea Squirts Teach Us About Immunity
Sea rabbits ...🐰🌿 Called the Sea Bunny, these creatures are highly venomous marine mollusks. Due to their venomous nature, they are not harmed by predators. Sea Bunny poison has an interesting potential to help people with cancer. Studies are already underway to see how these poisons can be used to control cancer.

This exotic locale is not at the top of most family vacation lists, but it should be, especially for families with older kids. This one-of-a-kind place offers awesome animal encounters, adventures in nature, and pristine beaches. It’s a trip your family won’t soon forget.
Velvet swimming crabs, with their red eyes and blue pincers are a popular subject. This one caught my eye not because it was in itself photogenic, but because it was hunkered down on a rocky reef dominated by vase sea squirts (Ciona intenstinalis). Whilst these sea squirts are common enough in sea lochs, in this particular spot they were really clean and about as abundant as I can ever remember seeing them. So, for an animal which mostly tries to be relatively inconspicuous, this one had failed pretty miserably. I was very fortunate as the visibility was good enough for me to back off with the 50mm macro lens so that I could take this \'view\' including the crab, rather than simply take its portrait.

This colony of tiny animals (ascidians) lives in a natural commune. Each animal lives in a small hole in the overall matrix (white circles), drawing water in and filtering it for food particles. Filtered water is then pooled and exhaled through the larger orange syphons. Clifton Gardens macro shots
