Beet Spiders are easily identified because they only have seven legs. After millions of dollars worth of government-funded research, scientists have determined that the Beet Spider is so mean that sooner or later it bites one of its own legs off. Some have only six legs, or even five. You really want to stay away from those.

Never bring beets on a boat !!!

Higher Animals

"Higher animals" is a catch-all term for vertebrates other than fish. This is rather self-congratulatory, since the so-called "lower animals" - fishes and invertebrates - are actually the dominant species on the planet, both in numbers and diversity! The four classes of higher animals are:

Amphibians - class Amphibia
Reptiles - class Reptilia
Birds - class Aves
Mammals - class Mammalia

Of these, amphibians are absent from marine environments ( with one or two exceptions. )

Sea Turtles ...
Sea Birds ...

Sea Mammals ...
