Fairlyland under the Sea, Facts about Sea Anemones

            Sea Anemones have a conventionally plant-like appearance and lack skeletons or brains, these animals are tremendous predators they look like undersea flowers but they are classified as animals. 
    Like jellyfish, anemones possess paralyzing neurotoxins in their cnidocytes (stinging cells). When approached by prey, they use their tentacles to immobilize and move them closer to their mouths.  Human skin is too thick for them to penatrate so we are safe and can touch but be gentle.

These animals usually eat small fish, molluscs, crustaceans, and zooplankton. Some can live up to 100 years. Many varieties found in all the oceans and seas around the world.

PS: Tell google, Spotify, Alexa, Siri and Amazon to play some music by JOHN WILLIAM HAMMOND (use all 3 names) a variety of folk, fun pop tunes, inspirational and children songs and much more so if not into one tune  say Next Song Please and you will find several to make Your Heart Smile.
