🦀 Ever heard of a body-snatching barnacle? Meet Sacculina, the parasite that turns crabs into zombie parents. It takes over their bodies, shuts down reproduction, and even makes male crabs care for its eggs. Nature’s version of mind control is way creepier than fiction. 💀 #HappyHalloween

🐢🌊 Did you know there are 7 species of sea turtles and six of them can be found right here around the U.S.?

Each one plays a unique role in our oceans, from reef cleaners to deep-sea travelers.

Happy #WorldSeaTurtleDay

Now everyone will go look up the book and it will make NY Times. #sighs #booksky #writingcommunity

South Florida meteorologist @johnmoralestv.bsky.social told his viewers live on air that he can no longer accurately predict hurricane season, due to federal government cuts.

This photograph captures Sir David Attenborough seated outdoors on the rugged terrain of Skomer Island. Behind him, the ocean and coastal cliffs form a scenic backdrop under a clear sky. Sir David, dressed in a khaki jacket and light trousers, looks towards the camera with a gentle expression, exuding a sense of warmth, calm, and wisdom. Around him, puffins can be seen flying and perched on the rocky ground, illuminated in rays of golden sunlight as the sun sets behind the cliffs.

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.

You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

Mum called all the way from St. Thomas to ask me what this was. Then proceeds to have me on speaker to teach beach goers about urchins.

Summer internship opportunity!

Mexican cannonball jellies is so surreal they look almost fake, with a chandelier-like mouth and deep blue color. But this species is also the target of an active & largely unregulated fishery, which collapsed around 2017. But recent posts from citizen scientists provide hope of a blueberry comeback

Can I sneak on board?

Beautiful day for a dive!

If anyone needs a good dive shop in South Florida, 100% recommend!

Built a wetland in a bottle to show kids the importance of protecting and preserving our natural ecosystems.

I will never NOT be confused by some of the trash we find in the ocean.

Had a great time diving in Pompano Beach!

List of authors of the direwolf genome preprint, including George R R Martin

I know lots of research labs who don’t include undergrad lab assistants as coauthors on papers, because they just followed instructions and didn’t make a serious intellectual contribution.

But sure, putting a fantasy author who funded your work as a coauthor screams “serious science, not a stunt.”

Need something to make me feel better after some chappy results this week.

Leave the mangos out of this

Disappointed doesn't begin to express how I feel. We all worked so hard to get where we are and apply for graduate school and within 2 months he managed to ruin so much for so many of us.

What did the Penguins do this time?
