Hello fish friends! Today is the vampire squid a real cutie! Named after its distinct color and appearance, it is the only living cephalopod that is a scavenger. It also has the largest eyes proportional to its body in the animal kingdom. It lives 2-3000feet deep so unfortunately seeing these beauties in person isnt easy. They also cant change colors like other cephalopods or shoot out ink, because both would be pointless in the darkness of that depth. Instead, when threatened, they shoot out a bioluminescent mucus. As cool as this is, I dont want to be sneezed on by a squid.

Doesn’t English have a different word for all animals from the sea? Like Frutti di Mare in Italian. Sea animals or something. Because fish is a classification, and you just can’t redefine meaning of words on the fly. And my ocd won’t let me sleep tonight until this important issue is resolved
what do you mean dolphins aren’t fish
