Скачать или смотреть Meet the Sea Pig – Ocean’s Weirdest Cleaner

The Sea Pig is one of the strangest and cutest creatures of the deep ocean. Despite its name, it’s not a pig at all—it’s a type of deep-sea sea cucumber. These pink, soft-bodied animals live thousands of feet below the surface, crawling across the ocean floor on their tube-like legs. Sea Pigs feed on “marine snow,” the decaying remains of plants and animals that drift down from above, making them essential cleaners of the deep sea. They often gather in large herds, slowly marching together in search of food. With their toxic defenses, squishy bodies, and mysterious lifestyle, Sea Pigs are a true wonder of the deep ocean—and a reminder of how strange and beautiful life on Earth can be.
