Sea Bunny: The Ocean’s Tiny Treasure

This tiny sea slug pulled off a magic trick. It looks soft and fluffy underwater, but those “fuzzy” bits are actually tiny hard rods called caryophyllidia. They keep predators away, but to us they look like white fur. Two little sensors stick up from its head to smell chemicals in the water. By pure chance, they look just like rabbit ears. Nature built this creature small and round to slip through water easily. It had no idea it would end up looking like a cartoon bunny come to life.
