Animal of the Day!

Almaco Jack (Seriola rivoliana)

(Photo in public domain)

Conservation Status- Least Concern

Habitat- Atlantic Ocean; Indo-Pacific Ocean

Size (Weight/Length)- 35 kg; 90 cm

Diet- Shrimp; Squid; Small fish

Cool Facts-  The almaco jack is a beast of the ocean. Capable of swimming an impressive 17 kilometers per hour, these fish value speed and stamina over everything else. Almaco jacks travel in massive schools in coastal areas, targeting groups of sardines and European squid. They force their prey into a tight ball and then strike as a single unit to scoop up mouthfuls of food. Almaco jack are essentially fearless and seek out large sharks, ranging from tiger sharks to great whites. Using the shark as a giant luffa, almaco jacks rub against the shark’s rough skin to remove any parasites or dead skin. Not wanting to pass up an opportunity, these fish will sometimes rub against scuba divers as a quick spa day.

Rating- 12/10 (I too wish I had a shark buddy.)

Image description: We are in a large room with large tables in the center and lined with shelves holding folded clothes. Several women and children stand next to the shelves. One woman is holding up a skirt or pair of pants to the waist of a young woman. Five children look at the clothes on the shelves and table.

Animal of the Day!

Pelagic Thresher (Alopias pelagicus)

(Photo by Jason Isley)

Conservation Status- Endangered

Habitat- Pacific Ocean; Indian Ocean

Size (Weight/Length)- 70 kg; 3 meters

Diet- Fish; Squid

Cool Facts- Known for their elongated caudal fins, pelagic threshers are a relatively small species of shark. Using their long tail as a whip, they slash through schools of fish. Their tail stuns fish and allows the thresher to calmly eat them without having to engage in a tiring chase. Pelagic threshers, true to their name, rarely come to shore and live the majority of their lives in the open ocean. There has never been an attack on a human by a pelagic thresher due to their small mouths and teeth. However, pelagic threshers are overfished for shark fin soup and traditional medicines which is slowly pushing them to the brink of extinction.

Rating- 12/10 (What can I say, I have a soft spot for sharks.)

They don't know this place. The streets look old and like the countryside is taking over the town. Their door was painted on some wall, hidden and protected from the rain (it's raining now.)

They're running. Or laughing. Or maybe both. Their sweaters are now wet, and it may not be the best thing, but it's fun. They run barefoot, the night surrounding them and embracing the sound of their laughs.

It's raining, they're barefoot and they don't know where they are.

And they don't care.

Zachary and Dorian hold hands under the rain, and their love fills the night.
