- Greater Blue-Ringed Octopus (Hapalochlaena lunulata)
The Blue-Ringed Octopus is only the size of a golf ball when fully grown, but it's definitely an animal that deserves our respect. Its blue rings appear as a warning to predators and people: blue-ringed octopus venom is extremely toxic, so do not touch! Tell a responsible adult if you see one. ;)

How are you?
It was really fun meeting you in DC. It's too bad that you weren't with us in California, if would've been cool to talk to you there and get to know you more! I hope your feet are better. I have more bandaids if you need some! :) You were very helpful in DC. Thank you.
Nice pictures by the way! :)
Hope all is well!
Miss you. Keep in touch.

So you go to Davis? I live about an hour away from there. Do you like it? What are you majoring in? I'll be applying to schools this fall, so it would be interesting to hear what you think of it.
Wow, bungy jumping sounds like something I definitely want to do... That's really cool! :)
After high school I know that I want to go to college, but for what I'm a little unsure. I really love the ocean sciences, so I think I'm going to go to college and major in that and minor in musical theater, so wherever I go to college has to have a strong science department and a strong musical theater program... Do you have any suggestions? I would appreciate some help... My time for applying to colleges is fast approaching, and I would love to be prepared way ahead of time! :)
looking forward to meet you in the DC then in california...
what's your grade?and how old are you?
how did you find out about the program?
