Did you know, that nudibranch’s (aka. Sea slugs) are hermaphrodites, which means that they have both male and female reproductive systems, meaning that when they find a mate, they inseminate each other at the same time; they do this by spearing each other with their genitalia.
Here is my favourite sea slug, the butterfly cyerce nudibranch, and they feed on algae:

earth fact time. this is NOT A DRILL! two great white sharks have become best friends!! their names are simon and jekyll and they've travelled together for over 4,000 miles. this is a huge discovery, because great white sharks are usually solitary creatures!
an important note is that these sharks aren't swimming side by side, and are usually a couple kilometres off from each other - but their trackers kept pinging in the same part of the ocean at the same time. scientists think they might be brothers, or following a previously unknown migratory path.
