| There are fish in Guam's ocean but don't forget about the shellfish. These are some of the most interesting creatures in the ocean. Clams are often gathered to eat! One of the shellfish is the textile cone. The textile cone is deadly. It hunts down small fish and poisons them. Another animal in a shell is called the cone. The cone hunts other cones to eat, but they are not as aggressive. Some other fish in shells are the miter shell, black-spotted triton, tulpa cowrie, sea urchin, and turban shell. The miter shell is a carnivore, it hunts other shells. The black-spotted triton lives near coral. The tulpa cowrie is shiny, and the body of this animal protects its shell. The sea urchin is very fragile. In the picture of the sea urchin its spines are cleared away. The turban shell lives near coral, 20- 35 feet down. The clam, when its small its 1 year old. But it can grow to 3 feet long. To see the pictures of these animals, just click! |
