megaredd asked: What is the animal on your profile picture? I volunteered at an animal sanctuary the other day and saw some animals that looked like your profile picture. I forgot to ask what they were, so I was wondering if you could help me out.

saere-nord asked: Many thanks for posting that Aziz Herawi track; expanding my musical tastes is one of my pastimes.

If you fancy listening to some sick cello ear candy, look up Adam Hurst or Steven Sharp Nelson.

leavesthatflare asked: Hello! I absolutely love your blog. I just recently went on an oceanography field trip to Port Aransas, Texas and we got to see the BIGGEST isopod our guide had ever encountered. It was pulled out of a croaker's mouth that we caught while trawling. How will the croaker be impacted? I'd love to know more about these kind of disturbingly horrible critters and I thought you'd be a...
