🦦 Sea otters are true gourmets of the #kelpforest! With a diet that includes over 100 different marine species.

This #seaotter is munching on a #basketstar, a type of brittle star with intricate, branching arms - and yes, they're just as wild-looking as they sound!

“Gorgonocephalus are basket stars, related to starfish, whose latin name means “Gorgon’s head”, being a reference to the basket star’s resemblance to a Gorgon’s dreaded snake hair. Medusa was the most famous of the three Gorgon sisters, who all had the ability to turn people to stone through only a look. Gorgonocephalus arcticus is found throughout the northern atlantic from subtidal to deep sea habitats of more than a kilometre depth. They are some of the largest ophiuroids, measuring up to 40 cms in diameter. Accompanying the Gorgons Head here is a blackmouth catshark (Galeus melastomus) who are generalist predators, and can be found in seafloor habitats from 150 – 1500 meters depth all around europe. This is another installation of the Norwegian coast series as part of a Science Artist Matchmaking collaboration organised by by @dsbsoc_arts.”

Not trekkie here, but as a person interested in everything that crawls, flies, swims and has non 2-sided body symmetry it annoys me that every "non carbon alien species" is a two-legged-tailess-ape in a rubber costume.

Where are my basketstar-siphonophore-mycelium civilizations?! >:(

This Hemicorallium colony, a genus of pink #corals belonging to the family #Coralliidae, was spotted by our #CorpsofExploration in the Central Pacific with a #basketstar, #Gorgonocephalidae on top, which relies on passing currents for food like small crustaceans and plankton.

Basket stars, relatives of the starfish, can reproduce asexually by simply ripping themselves in half.
