Heads up: Plan for traffic and road closures this Sunday for Bay to Breakers.
Check out this week’s featured specimen!
(Pictured below, really close up!)
Can you guess what it is?
Here are some hints:
- This animal has sharp backward-facing points on the roof of its mouth and tongue that help keep slippery fish headed in the right direction.
- A common threat to this animal is lead or mercury poisoning caused by pollution in its aquatic environment.
Leave us a comment with your answer! Then come see us outside the Project Lab on Friday, August 26th at 11:30 AM for Specimen Spotlight in order to find out if you’re right.
