This nudibranch is of the same family as the painted Thecacerus, but its yellow coloring allowed it to be a species in its own right.
Because of this color and its shape, especially its rhinophores (antennas) that resembles his ears, he was very quickly compared to the pokemon Pikachu.
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
However, tens of them are living at 600 feet from the famous beach of Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. And there are no attacks.
