I am going to present some interesting creature from world.I
am presenting some of them like the Olm,
Assassin spider, blobfish, satanic gecko .
Hemeroplanes Caterpillar:
I know the picture looks like a snake but I assure you this
is 100% a caterpillar. In fact that is the entire point of the Hemeroplanes
Caterpillar, this master of camouflage has a very unique defence mechanism in
that it can do a very good impression of a pit viper. If the Hemeroplanes
Caterpillar feels threatened it will raise the top half of its body from the
surface and inflate to resemble a pit viper – this crafty caterpillar even
emulates a lunging motion giving the impression its about to strike!
Blobfish:
Blobfish is basically found in deep sea in Australia and
Newzeland and Tasmania.This creature found in 600 to 1200 meters depth of
sea.Blofish is survive in very low amount of food due to low exertion in its
life.
Blanket Octopus:
The Blanket Octopus is a truly remarkable sight. This unique
octopus is able to open its tentacles to reveal a thin colourful membrane which
spreads out like a ‘blanket’, this is
done to make the Blanket Octopus look bigger and ward away predators.
Assassin Spider:
Is it a spider? Or is it a giraffe? Look at its neck! The
Assassin Spider (above) is indeed a truly bizarre specimen. The Assassin Spider
sports a long neck which is needed to provide leverage due to its massive jaws
which is uses to expertly catch and assassinate its prey.
Hatchet fish
This small fish spends its entire life in the darkest parts
of the worlds oceans hidden from prying eyes. The Hatchet fish may not seem
spectacular at first sight however the Hatchet fish is actually a light source
in the deep, dark oceans it calls home. The Hatchet fish has organs in its
sides called photophores which can be ‘turned on’ to give out a glow similar to
that of an led light. The Hatchet fish uses this ability to attract
unsuspecting prey and will do the opposite to evade predators.
Hairy Crab
Wouldn’t it be great if you could detoxify the air around
you, removing pollution and poisons? That’s exactly what the ‘hairs’ that this
crab is named for do. The ‘hair’ which is actually setae acts as I filter and
removes damaging poisons and chemicals from the water surrounding the Hairy
Crab. This ability is especially important to the blind Hairy Crab as it is
known to make its home in some of the most inhospitable environments.
Satanic Leaf-tailed Gecko
So far we’ve had numerous masters of camouflage in this list
but the Satanic Leaf-tailed Gecko really deserves the number one spot! Could
there ever be a more accurate representation of a crusty dead leaf? I don’t
think so!
Olm
The Olm is a fascinating example of an amphibian that makes
its home in the waters of Europe. This bizarre creature can only be found in
the deepest, darkest waters and relies on none of the traditional senses we
humans are used to such as sight or hearing.
Leafy Sea Dragon
The Leafy Sea Dragon is a master of camouflage and spends
its days drifting through the water perfectly emulating a floating piece of
seaweed. The Leafy Sea Dragon goes to great lengths to stay camouflaged such as
traveling extremely slow as to not give itself away. Like its closest relatives
the sea horses, the male Leafy Sea Dragon carries fertilized eggs until they
are ready to hatch.
