1, the king has a foot worm
It is generally believed that the king has a large number of foot worms living in the cold Atlantic ocean. The king-footed worm "1" reared in the Aquarium of Niaoya City, Mie Prefecture, Japan, died after a hunger strike for 5 years and 43 days, which is also the longest known animal.
2. narwhal
The most striking feature of narwhals is their tusks protruding from their heads, which are canine teeth protruding from their lips from the left upper jaw. They can reach 2~3 meters in length and are spiral, so they are named because they look like horns. In addition to fighting, teeth are also a symbol of their status in the family.

4. sea rabbit
Sea rabbits are not rabbits, but a kind of snails. Sea rabbits are hermaphroditic creatures, inhabiting on the bottom of the sea, with naked bodies, and there is an egg sperm groove between male and female reproductive holes. Sea rabbits are distributed in the warm sea areas of the world, and are also produced in the warm sea areas of China. Sea rabbits are the first animals discovered by scientists that can produce plant pigment chlorophyll.
5. Blue Dragon
The blue dragon was first published by European scholars, and this kind of sea slug will be called "Poseidon" because its appearance is like Glaucus in Greek mythology. In Greek mythology, Glaucus, the "sea god", won eternal life because he ate magical grass, but his hands grew fins and his legs became tails.

The reason why small lanterns glow is that there are gland cells in lanterns, which can secrete luciferin. Under the catalysis of luciferase, luciferin reacts with oxygen for slow chemical oxidation and emits light. Many fish in the deep sea have phototaxis, so small lanterns become? ? ? ? A sharp weapon for fish to lure food.
7. Quewei mantis shrimp
Mantis shrimp's second pair of jaws is very developed, which is a sharp weapon for it to prey and defend against the enemy. When attacking prey, it can eject the front end of the catching limb in one fiftieth of a second. A pistol bullet with a top speed of more than 50 miles per hour (about 80 kilometers) and an acceleration of more than 0.22 inch (5.588 mm) can produce an impact force of up to 60 kilograms. The high temperature caused by friction can even make the surrounding water emit electric sparks. Once a scientist was caught in the sea wearing gloves and hurt his fingers, bleeding profusely. Brought back to the laboratory and put in a measuring cylinder, the measuring cylinder was also smashed by it, which was evident in its ferocity.
8. Dropfish
Water-dripping fish, also known as sad fish, soft-hidden dogfish and bobo fish, is called "the most sad fish in the world" because of its sad face.

10. Star-nosed mole
Star-nosed mole is the fastest mammal predator in the world. With the help of high-speed cameras, it can be seen that the "star nose" can touch more than 12 places per second. Therefore, the star-nosed mole can complete the whole process of determining the position of prey and preying on prey in a quarter of a second.
