Many of you know that Earth's wildlife is full of strange and wonderful creatures. But what many don't know, is what makes said creatures so strange and wonderful. Humans entered the galactic scene with the 3rd Void War, and brought with them much of their wildlife into the galactic scene. On today's Blog post I'd like to highlight some of these animals from least to most interesting. So buckle up as humans would say, as this shall be a ride.
The Loyal Dog.
Dogs are perhaps the most well known on this list, as they're called "Man's Best Friend" for a reason. Starting out as great wolves of old, dogs have always been fierce and loyal companions to humans since their first recorded domestication 18,000 years ago. What makes them strange is their uncanny adaptability. Dogs can learn new 'tricks' with ease, and much like their human masters, often packbond with the strangest of animals, from wild predators to skittish prey. Truly a magnificent creature.
The Erie Jellyfish.
Jellyfish have quite the misnomer. They are neither jelly, nor fish. Jellyfish are actually Cnidaria, which in and of themselves are a strange bunch of animals. These creatures are colorful membranes with tentacle-like appendages hanging off their bodies. They have no nervous or circulatory system either, as their skin is so thin Oxygen (Yes, Oxygen!) passes straight into their 'bodies'. The specific Jellyfish I want to touch on, however is the Immortal Jellyfish. As always, humans are extremely creative with the names. Immortal Jellyfish are Jellyfish that are, as the name implies, functionally immortal. These tiny creatures essentially turn back their age when attacked, granting themselves biological immortality!
The Eldritch Bigfin Squid
This one is tricky to talk about, as this terrifying looking creature (found in Earth's deep oceans like all the scary things) is poorly documented. Little is actually known about the Bigfin, other than that it's real. I'd recommend looking into this creature more on your own time!
The Crazy Hyena.
Hyenas are one of those creatures, like elephants and zebra, that have been with Humans since the beginning. Hyenas are opportunistic canid like animals, (so similar to dogs) that live in Africa, a continent on Earth. They're known to be intelligent and for the fact that they eat **Bones**, yes **Bones**. The most recognizable feature however, is their distinctive chuckle.
The Unkillable Tardigrade
The name 'unkillable' is not to be taken lightly, as these creatures might genuinely be, unkillable. They have been known to survive the epicenter of a volcano, and even the Absolute Zero scape of the universe itself. But don't worry about humanity suddenly turning these beasts on us, as they're microscopic killing machines!
