"Alien" Sea Slugs
"Alien" Sea Slugs
50-80% of all life on Earth is found in the ocean. That makes sense, considering the ocean covers 99% of Earth’s surface. The crazy thing is, scientists have explored less than 10% of the entire ocean.
Despite how little of the ocean’s mass we’ve discovered thus far, what we have found is pretty incredible. Take these oddly adorable sea slugs for example.
Many of the slugs featured in this post are really snails that have lost their shells and gained new characteristics over the years through the process known as evolution. No matter how they originated, all of the sea slugs on this list are either aliens from another planet or some of nature’s most uniqely beautiful creations.
Unfortunately, as we humans have overfished so many of the ocean's species, chefs are now turning to what were previously known as 'trash fish', and sea slugs are now being caught for food. Will they too face extinction as a result?
Instead of turning to ever different species of living beings for our food, let's turn instead to the sustainable, compassionate and viable choice of plant-based dining! For a selection of meals as marvellous and varied as these sea creatures, check out http://KindMeal.my.
