Thanks to the steel structure of the SS Thistlegorm, which has been voted one of the best dives in the world, coral and other species which need hard substrates thrive on an otherwise sandy bottom in the...
The octopus is believed to be the most intelligent of all invertebrates. As well as its relatively large brain, each of the octopus' eight arms has its own rudimentary intelligence. This allows the arms to function independently....
Turtles are amazing creatures, found around the world in tropical and subtropical waters. They play a vital role in marine ecosystem health and have been in the ocean for more than 100 million years.
Mother turtles find their way back to nesting beaches by looking for unique magnetic signatures along the coast, according to a new study published in Current Biology.
Loggerhead turtles, for example, leave the beach where...
