Let's do Some Zoology!

Hi, I'm Andrew and I’m just a simple 18 year old guy and zoology student that posts random factoids about obscure animals and general animal science/zoology/biology stuff so if you like animals this is the place for you, if you only like cute animals this is not the place for you… I also like astronomy and some weirdos from youtube called the creatures so I’m prone to reblog stuff about that too. Also I track the 'astronomy-to-zoology' tag so yeah.

Disclamer: none of the pictures are mine unless stated

Order Doliolida: an order of thaliaceans found in tropical waters. Unlike their salp cousins doliolids have 8-9 bands of muscle lining their bodies, making them look similar to a barrel.

 Southern Right Whale Dolphin (Lissodelphis peronii)

is a small species of dolphin found in cold subantarctic waters, as its name suggests, but some can be found in some subtropical waters like in Australia, South Africa and South America. This species is the only species of dolphin without a dorsal fin that can be found in the southern hemisphere, they are also distinct in their coloration as they have a sleek body with a black upper side and a white underside making them easily identifiable. They behave like most dolphins as they live in large to small groups and will often leap out of the water and bow-ride boats.
