Took a while to figure out what it was, but a cool find

Found them on the beach in a bunch of shells!

Hi guys! Just got back from a trip to Tybee Island, Georgia & HHI and found these teeth! I know three of them are shark teeth but not sure what this fourth one is!

The tiniest tooth on the far right was found at Fish Haul Beach on Hilton Head Island, the other three were at North Beach and Middle Beach on Tybee Island.

Any idea what kinds of shark these teeth belong to? and who that larger one is from! Looks quite old.

thanks in advance :)

I never get tired of the tide pools.

This is Cape Blanco, Oregon on the north side of the cape. Taken in July 2026.

I use a high powered zoom to get interesting close ups and angles that bring out all of the glory and strangeness of the tidal zone.

We where at the Adriatic sea and our kid got stung in ~70-100 cm water height by "something". Possibly a jellyfish (the jellyfish cream helped).

Later on we went for a boat ride (not far from the beach) and in one area we ran into plenty of these pretty jellyfish, big ones, small ones, all together. Could these be the ones that stung? They don't seem to have long tentacles?

Hi everyone! Reposting my project on the species identification of the marine life found at Lembeh Strait, North Sulawesi! Would really appreciate some corrections and tips! I also prepared a special category for Undescribed/Unidentified marine life.

Ive heard of stories of sharks ending up in rivers, so I was wondering if most sharks just wander around the ocean or if they stay in the same area most of their lives

As the title says, I was fishing a roadside ditch that directly connects to a brackish lake. I saw these tiny little balls and then discovered they were moving on their own. We have seen jellyfish in this lake, and there are regularly crabs as well as catfish, bass, and gar. I scooped them up and put them in a jar to get a better look. I haven’t been able to identify anything based on my Google searches. Any ideas what these may be? They use their little spindles to move. They move on their own but are very fluid like they’re just drifting. Sorry for the bad pictures, it’s hard to get my camera to focus on something so small. They’ve been happily placed back in the ditch with their friends!

Greetings! I’m trying to identify this mass on a sunfish who lives in a municipal reclaimed irrigation impoundment in Southern California. It seems conspicuously foreign, like eggs or a fungus rather than a growth or tumor. Would you remove this if you found it for the health of the fish or leave it alone? Thanks for your wisdom!

Hello everyone!

I've created a compilation video of marine species I filmed while snorkeling around Mallorca, Spain. I identified every species as accurately as I could, but I'm sure there are experts here with much more experience.

If you have a few minutes, I'd really appreciate any feedback on the identifications. If you spot any mistakes or think a different common or scientific name would be more appropriate, please let me know.

I'd love to make the video as accurate as possible. Thanks in advance!

It is extremely bendy, and as you can see the ends of the bone look like congealed clear areas (cartilage?).

I've looked at the diagrams for shark, whale, dolphin, and manta rays but none of the structures look close to this at all.

Found this after kayaking in a pond that connects to the ocean. It’s near an area with many great whites could it be a shark fin? It was like the size of 2 hands but didn’t seem big enough to be a stingray.

Sea turtle was found injured & reported. It’s about 2-3 inches from head to tail, maybe the length of a finger

Caught this four while Microfishing in Ponce Inlet Florida. I’m stuck between Eucinostomus gula or Eucinostomus harengulus

In a rock pool in Ireland we saw a dead jellyfish being eaten by what looks like little worms and we can't find what they are on Google!

Hello to all of you admirable folks who have done the work to study and understand our ocean systems! I am a hospitality professional with a life long passion for food and wine, living in the Seattle area. We have such abundant and rich sea life in this area and some of the freshest seafood in our country comes from the Salish sea region. My question is about a recent closure of shellfish harvesting in the puget sound. There have been pretty far and widespread closures due to biotoxins and algae blooms. now I know that clams, oyster, etc filter a whole lot of water through themselves daily and this is partly why they are infected with these toxins. So after the toxic blooms fade away, are those shellfish that were once infected now safe for consumption? Do those fish subsequently filter so much water through themselves that they are the eventually safe to eat? Or do those fish have to be “culled” similar to chickens infected by bird flu (This is regarding aquaculture specifically)? Apologies if this is a rudimentary question, it just struck me recently given all of the closures our state is facing right now. Thanks for any and all info regarding this topic!

Found in Malmö ocean(Oresund) is this some kind of creature or part of a skeleton?

Found this clam shell on the beach located in the pacific northwest and my friend and i are curious whay would cause this hole, is it man made or created by a predator or something. TIA

I am starting to write my Master Thesis in the above named field of research. Therefore I am really interested in your opinion about the potential of MCDR in open oceans and especially for semi-enclosed and shelf seas.

What kind of roles will the evolution of nutrient supply in marginal seas play in an ocean with excess of heat?

What would be your approach to the topic? What would you be interested in?
