How To Be A Mermaid/Marine Biologist
The Baby Brown Banded Bamboo Shark likes stripes.
Stripes, like those of the poisonous sea snake, fool potential predators (the dumb ones) and protect this baby from being eaten.
When the Brown Banded Bamboo Shark grows out of his juvenile stripes, he becomes a mature brown.
Unfortunately, most humans are not fooled by the stripes and these little guys are commonly eaten in the islands of The Coral Triangle.
Boding = Tagbanua/Tagalog name for Shark
I am an Anemone,
A tentacled beast at the bottom of the sea.
It is a beautiful place with a lot of space,
And it used to get quite lonely.
One day a clownfish and some Zooxanthelae
floated by, nestled in and came to live with me.
We are now a happy, multi-species family.
The Anemone, the Clownfish and the Zooxanthellae are a symbiotic threesome found all over the reefs of Palawan.
The Mermaid Islands Corp is coming out with a fun fact filled Alphabet book of the sea creatures we have found in Palawan. Bright watercolors and ocean critter stories promise to be entertaining to mermaids and kids alike. Enjoy these teasers and stay tuned for more updates on how to reserve your book.
Banan = Tagalog/Tagbanua name for Anemone
