This is the starfish-stabbing robot that will save the Great Barrier Reef If you're a crown of thorns starfish, you've probably been minding your own business, confusing people about whether you're an animal or plant, and just generally living life like a 3D asterisk that can move.

The Worst Party in Asia - Roads & Kingdoms KOH PHANGAN, Thailand— “HELLOOO, FULL MOON PARTY!” the touts holler. Welcome to Koh Phangan… I guess. The host of tuk-tuk drivers and solicitors who await the tourist ferry-load arriving every hour make no mention of the actual island. It’s all about the party. Or rather, parties. Every night. The n…

"Szomorú eset, pénteken meghalt egy thai turista Koh Phanganon, Ban Thai közelében úszva kockamedúza csípte meg. Érzékeny téma, fórumokban gyakran szokták túlreagálni. A világ egyik leghalálosabb állata a kockamedúza. Az összeesküvés elmélet gyártók előszeretettel értekeznek arról, hogy Thaiföldön sok van belőle, csak eltitkolják az eseteket. Ez nem igaz, minden eset bekerül a sajtóba, ahogy most is. Tavaly egy francia kisfiú volt az áldozat. Tragikus esemény volt. Általában az esős évszakban kerülnek elő ezek a medúzák, ekkor kell jobban vigyázni"

"An angler has been left stumped after hooking a rare and as yet unidentified fish.
The mystery creature has a large head and is covered with sharp spines on the top and bottom of its body, which gets progressively smaller towards the tail.
The fish measuring over one foot in length also has two tusk-like spikes near its mouth. The strange catch has left locals baffled as to what it could be."
The strange creature was caught in the South China Sea near Tudan, Malaysia."

Mistakes in the movie Finding Nemo..
- Contrary to what you may have seen in movies, whales don’t spray water out of their blowholes. When the whale resurfaces, they have to release the used up air back into the atmosphere just like all other mammals do. This results in a spout, but it isn’t water (at least not at first). The air inside the whale is typically quite warm from the whale’s body heat. When it’s exhaled, it meets the much cooler temperature of the air outside and immediately condenses, making it look like a spout of water.
- Further, the whale’s trachea doesn’t connect to the esophagus of the whale; so when Dory and Marlin went down the whale’s throat, in real life, they’d have simply been eaten.
- As a rule, baleen whales—those whales who don’t have teeth, but rather have baleen plates to filter food out of the water—have two blowholes, while toothed whales have just one blowhole. Types of baleen whales include the humpback, blue, and gray whales. (This is, of course, another inaccuracy in Finding Nemo as that was a humpback whale that they showed having only one blowhole) and when they depict the whale as having a uvula- whales don’t have those.
- When the mother clownfish died, the father would have turned into a female and become the mother- clownfish are all born male with the dominate male of a group becoming female when the female of the group dies. Also, Coral, Marlin’s wife, should have been bigger than Marlin, not smaller as depicted in the movie.
- After a female clownfish lays her eggs, neither she nor the male fish that fertilized the eggs have anything further to do with their offspring.
- “Mr. Ray” was depicted as a female, lacking claspers used for mating.
- Dory and Marlin should have never been able to encounter an angler fish, as they are found in depths of greater than 1,000 meters- an environment the stalwart pair could not have survived in.
