Hello friends from the underwater world!馃惉
We are a new community that will continue to do our best to showcase and bring quality posts that highlight the importance of our underwater world馃悷. We appreciate your posts! It has been very pleasant to read in detail all the information it contained. Curations are handpicked on behalf of the Aquatic Sentinels Community.
The aquatic environment offers us a totally different world from the one we know normally. Only in the sea we find thousands of described species and possibly there are many others to discover.
Aquatic and marine life offers us multiple topics of interest:
馃憠Biology
馃憠Taxonomy
馃憠Ecology
馃憠Genetics
馃憠Behavior
馃憠Reproduction
馃憠Bioacoustics
馃憠Relationship with human beings
馃憠Animal welfare
馃憠 ...and many others!
Remember that the Aquatic Sentinels Community Purpose is:
"Share the underwater world with everyone馃"
That is, working together, where both Aquatic Sentinels and our subscribers can share quality information in favor of aquatic species and their ecosystems.
We are pleased to present the publications that have received curation in this past 3 months, the authors have done an incredible job sharing with us very valuable information:

Post: Small but Terrible | Your Army of Light-Blue Soldier Crabs
Autor: 
"I always thought its fun to watch them when they would all burrow under the sand with just one step and crawl their way out again and "run" once they wouldn't feel any movement anymore. As I grew up I never really bothered what they specifically are, all I knew was that they were just "crabs" and boy, I was wrong. I did a little of research and got to know more about these little crustaceans scientifically known as Mictyris longicarpus but I think its best to stick with its common name: Light-Blue Soldier Crabs.

"Innovation in different areas could help change plastic use patterns in the future, however, they are not a solution to spreading waste, while prevention, waste management and public awareness are, and more so now that one of the most serious environmental effects of the pandemic is the sudden increase in demand and use of plastic products, and plastic waste production is expected to increase after the pandemic due to hygiene concerns and the recovery of economic activity.

"Many animals need the oceans to fulfill their biological cycle, for example seabirds like pelicans, gulls need these waters to fish and feed! other animals such as poliferos are permanent inhabitants that serve as a habitat for other animals!馃槰馃槰.
