@roger,
I've often wondered about the planetary origins of animals found at great depths. This octopus was found in the Marianas Trench, the lowest place on earth.

@hingehead,
That looks like a cross between a giant sunfish and giant skate; but, without color🤔

They are beautiful to their lovers though (well, anyways, the skate was😪).

Atheris hispida is a venomous viper species endemic to Central Africa. It is known for its extremely keeled dorsal scales that give it a bristly appearance https://buff.ly/2pD6pE6

@Roberta,
I think s/he's the smiliest snake I've ever seen.

The smile is one of quiet confidence - bordering on a deserved sense of arrogance.

@Roberta,
Roberta- Have you watched anything by David Attenborough? His shows are about the earth, and the animals who inhabit it. They are a "must see".

He is in his mid nineties now, and his latest show tells about how the earth is changing, and what humans can do to stop the destruction.

@Phoenix32890,
Of course I watch shows with David Attenborough. I admire him tremendously.

I'll look for his new show.

Thanks for the tip.

@Roberta,
I saw something on Sky yesterday where he was looking at the exhibits in the Natural History Museum, and some exhibits came to life using computer animation.

@Roberta,
I found a trailer. The program is, David Attenborough, A Life on this Planet. It was made in 2020.
It is both beautiful, and very sad.

Jonathan the tortoise, 188 years old. He must be following a strict regimen of diet and exercise. He doesn't look a day over 150.

@roger,
Pull you head into your shell. Push your head out of your shell. Repeat.

Chew. Repeat.

Lift one leg at a time to walk. Repeat.

Oy, I'm exhausted just writing this.

@Roberta,
Get in the water and swim so you don't have to feel all that weight.

Oh, damn! We are tortoises and came out of the water eons ago for good. Damn you great grandpa!
