5. SQUIDS
There are more than 300 different types of squid that have
been identified around the world. However, it is believed that
many more exist out there. We simply haven’t been able to
find them all and to identify them all yet. Some of the larger
squid can weigh more than 1,000 pounds.
Many species of squid have a life span that is only about one
year.
6. STARFISH Although sea stars live
underwater and are commonly
called "starfish," they are not
fish. They do not have gills,
scales, or fins like fish do and
they move quite differently from
fish. While fish propel
themselves with their tails, sea
stars have tiny tube feet to help
them move along (see more on
that below).
7. ALLIGATOR
The American alligator has four short legs, a
broad, round snout, a long and powerful tail
and a rough hide with scales. Adult males can
grow up to 20 feet long and weigh up to half a
ton, though on average, males are about 11
feet (3.4 m) long, while females are about 8
feet (2.6 m).
