Marine Biology News

Last semester I needed to find and arctiale that related to my placement for career intern. Since I was working with the aqaurium keeper at the zoo every week, I researched articles about marine biology. This site, www.sciencedaily.com, has a bunch of really good articles that have stuff do with every branch of science. Most of the stuff I look at though is realted to zoology and marine biology.

I just found this article about how there may have been more species of seacows than previous thought. I am really interested in fish and mammals that live in the ocean so this article was really cool to me. The thing I like about this article (and a lot of the other articles), is that it shows how research can show us new details about animals or completely contradict what was previously thought. These articles do a great job at explaining the new discoveries of science to me. Here is the link to the article I found about seacows:

Here is also a picture of a sea cow:









Just kidding, this is a real sea cow:
