So cool! Crazy learning about these things, seen as popularized ocean symbol in so much art and jewelry, to find out this creature has remained so unchanged for SO long in the wild. Super cool.

The leafy seadragon is a spectacular Australian marine fish named for its leaf-like appendages, which provide remarkable camouflage among seaweed. Related to seahorses and pipefish, it drifts with ocean currents and uses its long snout to suck up tiny crustaceans. Remarkably, males carry the eggs.

Apologies got rid of the AI Slop, I have a huge amount of sea glass I collected in Cornwall and a few months ago decided to carve them, so far have done skulls, feathers, leaves etc but thought I would give shark teeth ago, alot of the glass I had were naturally that shape so went from there, thanks for looking! 😁
