Fuck ICE. Fuck Donald Trump. Free Palestine. Free Sudan. Free Congo. End these brutal illegal forever imperialist wars. Trans rights are human rights. End all settler colonialism.
This International Women's Day, please remember that trans women are women. Full stop. No qualifiers.
The first one is a Caribbean reef shark the second one is a blue shark (I tried haha) 😄
A female tiger shark (Galeocerdo cuvier) is swimming close to the seafloor in clear water
Happy international women's day! 🤍
Did you know? Female sharks tend to be larger than males

A nurse shark (Ginglymostoma cirratum) rests motionless on the sand while hiding their face (their snout mostly) under a small reef crevice
Close up of a nurse shark hiding their face under a very tight reef cave or crevice
A nurse shark hiding half of their face behind a reef rock
A nurse shark hiding behind a coral
Nurse sharks look so silly when they do that hehe
Two nurse sharks (Ginglymostoma cirratum), one large on the right and a smaller one of the left, are resting on the ocean floor next to each other
Shark fact: nurse sharks are mostly nocturnal and they often spend their days resting on the ocean floor!

...But the problem with this is that not all creatures clean themselves so some won't care that there's a random mark on them. And not all are vision oriented like we are some rely more on scent
Same! 😊 And yeah there's a test (the mirror test) that they do in many animals but it's not really accurate according to some studies. Sharks didn't pass it, basically they put a mark on the animal and give them a mirror. If the animal sees the mark and tries to remove it then they pass the test...

A blacktip reef shark (Carcharhinus melanopterus) swimming upwards to the surface. The water is crystal clear so the shark's reflection is visible on the surface
I wonder what sharks think when they see their reflection. Do they recognize themselves? Fish are much more intelligent than previously thought
And I dont think the "mirror test" is accurate for all animals because each creature has different behaviors
Thanks!! 🙏

Sand tiger sharks are known by several names depending on the location!
They're also called grey nurse sharks, spotted ragged toothed sharks or blue-nurse sand tigers
