| Sea Monsters Region: Global Ocean Country: various Description: Many denizens of the world oceans could be described as monstrous- they may have: tentacles, a fearsome reputation, big teeth, an air of mystery, way more than the usual number of legs, an alien or unfamiliar appearance, and, in many cases, a distinct lack of what you might call a face. Yet these monsters frequently also possess: grace, brilliant colors, striking patterns, pleasing symmetry, sparkly or shiny surfaces, and sometimes, a clearly visible face humans instinctively identify as "cute". This is a guide to those beautiful monsters. | Jen Hammock | 2012/02/15 | Published | VIEW | PRINT | EDIT | DELETE | ||||||||||||||||||||
