10 Unique And Interesting Animals; You Never heard about them before
As you probably know
animals use all kinds of tricks in order
to survive. Especially, those that don't
have sharp teeth or at the size of a bus
because in that case, you don't need any
tricks to get on with your life.
However, the rest had to think of
something to protect themselves. Some can
change their color but some went further
and can become invisible or almost
invisible.
So in this article, I'm going to tell you about
10 amazing transparent
creatures let's get it on;
1. Glass Catfish
This freshwater animal lives in
south-East of Asia and it has an elongated transparent body of not
more than 6 inches long. The glass catfish is
one of the most transparent vertebrates
on the planet. And you can see its spine
through the abdomen or the sides there
it is seen all the organs of the fish are
located next to the head and if you take
a good look you'll even notice its
heartbeat.
2. European Eel
Now it's not a
gelatin fish made especially for
children's holiday but a real living
animal. European eels change their color
several times throughout their life at
first. They're transparent, and then on
the sides and the stomach, they turn
brownish-yellow after living in fresh
river water. For about ten years, these
eels reach sexual maturity and go to
spawn in the sea.
3. Greta Otto
If you thought that
transparent creatures live only under
the water then, you are wrong. Because the
butterfly Greta Otto lives in Central
and South America up to the coast of
Child. In addition, it can migrate over
long distances and has been seen several
times in Texas. The main feature of this
butterfly of course is it's amazing
transparent wings as well as a love for
eating thoughtfully. So if you
accidentally find this creature eating
nectar don't worry the Greta Otto will
not fly away most likely it'll be having
a very long meal
and will have enough time to
take a couple of pictures.
4. Sea cucumber
There is an organization known as the census
of marine life and thanks to the work
and research of their scientists we now
know of the existence of the incredible
transparent sea cucumber. This interesting creature was discovered very
recently and it's so transparent that
you can observe how it digests its food
without using any instruments.
5. Ghosts shrimp
This is the ghost
shrimp or glass shrimp as it's sometimes
called by the researchers. Despite its
appearance, it lives like an ordinary
crustacean in fresh water and is a
qualified scavenger. It's not surprising
that over the years of evolution this creature has become transparent because
it's often attacked by other creatures
even smaller than the shrimp itself.
6. Salpa Maggiore
Salpa are creatures that
live on the surface of the ocean and one
of their subspecies moves in an unusual way by simply distilling water through
its digestive organs while eating
phytoplankton. In addition, this creature
is completely transparent with the
exception of a small orange drop in the
tail and at the same time quite solid so
it has nothing in common with jellyfish.
Throughout their life, Salpa can live
as separate individuals or be part of a
bigger organism getting together among
themselves in the form of a large
invisible floating tape.
7. Glass frog
In the world, there are several types of
these frogs and the skin on their abdomen is so transparent that it seems
as if it were made of glass. That's the reason they're known by that name.
Through the frog's abdomen, you can
see the internal organs of the
animal, for example, the heart and the
liver. These animals live in the jungles
of Central and South America and are
woody which means that they usually hang
out by the trees.
8. Golden tortoise beetle
This beetle isn't completely transparent
but it still deserves a place on our
list because it has a shell that's
almost invisible. The goal of the transparent outer shell is to deceive
predators because on the back of the
beats there are special warning marks
in creating the terrible toxicity of the
creature. There are different types of
tortoise beetles and the pattern under
their transparent shell can also be
different but anyway this seems to us
very original.
9. See Angels
These beautiful
creatures live in the cold waters of the
Atlantic the Pacific and the Arctic
oceans. Sea angels don't grow more than
two inches in length and prefer to swim
at great depth. So people who meet these
unusual marine creatures see them under
the light of searchlights
which adds to the Angels a bit of
otherworldly beauty. There's
nothing mysterious about these creatures
they're transparent, mollusks, and in
addition quite gluttonous predators. By
the way the main dish on their menu is
other deep-sea animals which are called
sea ducks.
10. Flagtail Surgeonfish
This transparent fish is a young
creature meaning it's still not an adult
but a teenager, and it's a surgeon fish.
And if this name sounds familiar to you
then, you have a good memory you've
probably heard it in the cartoon Finding
Nemo and Finding Dory because the ditzy
hero from both films belongs to this
species. We know it's rather difficult to
see a resemblance to Dory but still, take
our word for it.
Surgeonfish can be found in warm waters.
For example off the coast of New Zealand
and under favorable conditions can grow
up to twelve inches in length. In addition, this fish is very popular as an
aquarium inhabitant.
Great! Allah has created so many beautiful creatures. Very interesting.
