🦈Daily Shark Fact🦈:
The epaulette shark is not only a perfectly capable swimmer, but it can also “walk” between coral heads at low tide, along the seafloor, and even on land when needed. For that reason, it is often called the “walking shark.”

The Epaulette shark (Hemiscyllium ocellatum) is known as the walking shark, and is named for the markings on the back.
He almost got a JUICY / SEXY above his butt 👀👀👀👀

Here's another shark fact!! I think this one's really interesting
The epaulette shark can use its fins like legs, to walk, when the tide is too low to swim. (If you have time, watch this little video. It's really cool!)

The epaulette shark is a species of longtailed carpet shark in the family Hemiscylliidae which is native to the tropical waters off the coasts of Australia, New Guinea, Malaysia, Sumatra, and the Solomon Islands. Here they tend to live in and around tidal pools, coral flats, and stands of staghorn coral where they prefers waters shallower than 160ft (50m) deep, and are often seen in water barely deep enough to cover their bodies. To navigate these conditions the epaulette shark moves by bending its body from side-to-side and pushing off of the substrate with its paddle-shaped pectoral and pelvic fins, walking with a gait similar to that of salamanders. The epaulette shark is even capable of traversing about on dry land but still requires water to breathe, they are extremely well adapted to deal with Hypoxic conditions and are capable of going without oxygen for upwards of an hour. Epaulette sharks are typically nocturnal opportunistic predators of crustaceans, mollusks, worms, and small boney fish. They are themselves eaten by sea birds, large boney fish, and other sharks. Reaching 27 to 42 inches (70 -107cms) in length, epaulette sharks sport a slender elongated body over half of which is comprised of the massive tail. The snout is short and rounded with a pair of tiny barbels, and elevated oval shaped eyes. The pectoral and pelvic fins are broad and rounded and are thickly muscled. The two similarly sized dorsal fins are placed well back on the body. They are beige to brownish above with many widely spaced brown spots and subtle darker bands, with a very large black spot ringed in white located behind each pectoral fin. Mating occurs from july to December. This species is oviparous, with females depositing 2-4 egg capsules at a time every 14 days, producing a total of 20–50 eggs per year. The young hatch after 120 -130 days. Under ideal conditions an epaulette shark will reach sexual maturity at around 7 years and may live upwards of 25.

i saw your post about "smooth shark kent" and i just imagined flash trolling batman about superman's "super smooth skin he's so smooth you could make him slide around on dry steel" and bruce just rolls up clark's sleeve and starts filing his fingernails down on his arm while making unblinking eye contact with flash
(i forgot flash's real name can you tell lmaooo)
extremely correct for two reasons
bruce knows he shouldn't get in another stupid argument but refuses to let someone be incorrect around him so he just gets silently passive-aggressive
bruce and clark know/trust each other enough that bruce can just grab clark's arm and roll up his sleeve and file his nails on the guy mid-conversation
i like a really tactile superbat, what can i say... and with that in mind i think it becomes even better when one of them is some insane shark alien. the potential for physical comedy is unmatched

Genuine question as I am curious — I know it’s pretty obvious with his expressions/ body language that Daniel seemed shy/insecure(?) about having his braces, but has he ever outright said anything about feeling that way with them? Just out of curiosity as I am new around here!
“I feel very different in terms of looks. Fortunately, experience also bought me better looks. I’m not really too fond of showing people photos of me when I was younger”
#well he doesn’t exactly say he was self-conscious of his braces but he was definitely very self-conscious about how he looked#it’s always very interesting to me the way Daniel talks about his younger self#it’s so different from how other f1 drivers talk about their early days#he’s so self-critical of younger him that I wish he was a bit more forgiving of younger him#the way he’s admitted he was never a standout talent during his karting days#that he was so hesitant to get involved in battles that his dad got mad at him#the way on the gypsy tales podcast he talks about Motocross riders being fearless and how he doesn’t have that until jase interrupts him -#to say how how mad he is because just a few days ago he was throwing a car around on a street circuit at some 300kph#the way in this video with will he describes himself walking into the paddock like a ‘headless chick’#the way he has said so many times he was scared to move away from home. how uncertain he was he would ever succeed#and then that one video towards the end of 2022 when he says ‘I was just Daniel then’ in reference to his younger self#like he has such a distinct way of looking at his younger self. like he views that part of him almost as a separate entity from the him now#and I guess that’s because it took a lot of work and years to build that confidence of becoming Daniel ricciardo#a confidence he got as he managed to survive the shark tank of the red bull junior academy#a confidence he got from beating his 4x wdc teammate. from winning the most insane races#and that confidence then getting completely decimated in the space of a few months in 2022#and even now the more he says he is confident you can still see that tiny hesitancy#how every time he gets a good result you see how he yearns to lean back into his confident Daniel schtick#and he may just completely embrace it soon anyway <3#daniel ricciardo#anon ask

🐠 Daily Fish Fact: 🐠
Larval Flounder are born with one eye on each side of their head, but as they grow from the larval to juvenile stage through metamorphosis, one eye migrates to the other side of the body. As a result, both eyes are then on the side which faces up. The side to which the eyes migrate is dependent on the species type. As an adult, a flounder changes its habits and camouflages itself by lying on the bottom of the ocean floor as protection against predators.
