That puffer should grow to 3'! That's quite a gash on the snapper.

That puffer looks deformed and underweight...
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Found among the papers of Mohatma Gandhi

What kind of puffer is that? I saw spikes, so I thought porcupine or box, but it has a lot of small dots all over it. Looks neat.

Wow. I didn't watch it all the way through the first time. I just watched again to see this fish that was apparently "wide open".

Holy. That's insane, that poor fish. I wish we knew more about how fish feel pain.
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.
