Sea+Cucumbers!+10k

Sea Cucumbers! So, what is a sea cucumber anyway? Is it a cucumber that lives in the ocean? No. Sorry, if that's what you thought. If you want to learn about cucumbers in the sea then this is not the page for you. A sea cucumber is a ocean dweller, some live in the shallows, while others live deep on the ocean's floor. I found some super awesome facts about them!!!!! I mean, did you know that when a sea cucumber is threatened it will discharge sticky threads to capture their enemies?!? Amazing! It's sort of like an octapus! Also, they can live for about 5 to 10 years in the wild. Not very long, so we need to take good care of them. So, there are many different kinds of species of sea cucumbers! There are about 1,250 __//known//__ species and the reason they get their name is because most of them are shaped like soft bodied cucumbers!!!!! SOOOOOOO COOL!!!!! To the right you can see a picture of a sea cucumber, interesting!
