You Will Not Believe This‼️😱 There’s a place near Santa Cruz called Boneyard Beach where you can see actual *whalebone fossils* sticking out of the rocks, and they’re around 3 to 5 million years old! That’s right, these fossils are from the Pliocene Epoch, back when this area was part of an ancient ocean. As you explore the rugged shoreline, you’ll find pieces of whale vertebrae and ribs embedded in cliffs and boulders, preserved for millions of years. It’s like stumbling onto a secret time capsule from when giants ruled the seas. Seeing something so ancient up close is mind-blowing—definitely worth the trip!

So many huge jellyfish washed up! I had to stack them like pancakes to carry them all. I couldn’t believe how many there were, I had to have my kids help me! @Jayce Colvin #animals #nature

Extremely Satiafying smashing things on the beach! #nature

Be careful if you see these jellyfish out in the wild! #animals #nature

Huge Parasite is removed from Kim (not Kim Kardashian) the shrimp. #animals #nature

Can you eat jellyfish? Are jellyfish edible? This video explains. Always do your own research on which jellyfish species you are going to consume. Never touch a jellyfish that You can’t properly identify. It’s better & safer to just not touch them at all. I am an experience jellyfish identifier and handler. Do not attempt to re-create a reenact anything you see in my videos. #Animals #Nature

Look What I Found at The Beach! 😱 #animals #nature

You Have to See This! Shoreline isopods on the Oregon coast are like tiny, alien janitors of the beach! These little crustaceans hide under rocks and seaweed, scuttling around to clean up the debris left behind by the tides. But here’s the wild part—some of these isopods are parasitic, latching on to fish like miniature vampires! Imagine walking on the beach and not knowing these sneaky creatures are just below the surface, keeping the ecosystem in balance. Nature is as weird as it is fascinating! Find me on 👻 @jakec.pnw and YT! #Nature #Animals

Green sea anemones, scientifically known as *Anthopleura xanthogrammica*, are predatory marine animals commonly found in rocky tide pools along the Pacific coast. They have a cylindrical body topped with a crown of tentacles that contain stinging cells called nematocysts. These cells immobilize prey, such as kelp crabs, by injecting venom when the tentacles make contact. Once subdued, the anemone uses its tentacles to guide the crab into its central mouth, where it is digested. Green sea anemones play an essential role in the intertidal ecosystem by controlling prey populations and recycling nutrients. #Animals #nature

#greenscreen shrimp parasites! Should i make more removal videos? #animals #nature

You Won’t Believe What I Found on the beach! 😱 Did you know the Oregon coast is a hotspot for finding fossils of prehistoric cetaceans, like ancient whales and dolphins? The Astoria Formation and Nye Mudstone, found in areas like Lincoln and Clatsop Counties, are especially rich in marine fossils, dating back 15–20 million years to the Miocene epoch. You can find fossilized vertebrae, skull fragments, and even teeth from these ancient creatures. To search for them, head to coastal cliffs, riverbanks, or spots exposed by erosion after storms or tides—just look for smooth, bone-like textures embedded in the rock. Always check local regulations before collecting to make sure you’re good to go! #animals #nature #fossils #oregon

This is why you should never touch an octo in the wild! 😱 #animals #nature

Hunting for an Octopus! 🐙 Why am i searching for an octopus? Am I going to eat it? Actually, i love octopuses and would never eat one. My goal is to experience n in the wild and help researchers learn more about them. Once ive caught one, it will be donated to Oregon State University for their super important octopus research program: Oregon State University’s Hatfield Marine Science Center (HMSC) conducts significant research on octopuses, particularly focusing on their biology, behavior, and adaptability. The octopuses used in their programs, such as the giant Pacific octopus (*Enteroctopus dofleini*), serve as important subjects for studying cognition, problem-solving, and environmental adaptability. Researchers aim to understand how these intelligent creatures interact with their surroundings, including their ability to camouflage, their feeding habits, and their social behaviors. These studies not only deepen scientific knowledge of cephalopods but also contribute to broader marine ecology and conservation efforts. When the research is complete, HMSC follows strict ethical practices for the care of the octopuses. They are often released back into the wild in the same environment where they were collected, ensuring minimal disruption to their natural ecosystem. This approach aligns with the center’s commitment to sustainable and ethical research practices while fostering public education and awareness about marine life. #animals #nature #octopus

The Amanita muscaria mushroom contains psychoactive compounds that can cause confusion, altered perceptions of time, and vivid hallucinations. These effects can range from euphoria to anxiety and disorientation. Physically, it can lead to nausea, sweating, muscle twitching, and extreme fatigue. While it has been used in some traditional practices, its unpredictable nature makes it risky and potentially harmful. #nature #education

This log is infested with strange Animals 😱 #nature #animals

You Will Not Believe how brutal sea anemone venom is‼️ These seemingly harmless, flowery creatures are actually underwater assassins. Their tentacles are lined with specialized stinging cells called nematocysts, which work like tiny biological harpoons. When prey gets too close, these harpoons fire off in a split second, injecting venom that paralyzes the victim almost instantly. The venom disrupts nerve signals, leaving the prey helpless as the anemone drags it into its waiting mouth. It’s like nature’s version of a paralyzing taser—only there’s no escaping, and it’s over in seconds. Shocking, right? #animals #nature
