Five hundred million years ago, something that was not yet an animal became one. This week, in a lab in Jena, somebody got close to watching it happen.

They found the master switch — the cells that tell a body what to build — inside a comb jelly, one of the oldest branches on the animal tree. Then they moved those cells into a sea anemone from a wholly different phylum, and the anemone grew a whole second working mouth.

The body remembers things older than every empire that ever called us unnatural.

How Big Can It Get? The pufferfish goes all out to attract a mate. What it does is both beautiful and awe inspiring.

Angler fish take mating for life to a whole new level. The male actually merges with the female. "I've got you babe" starts to mean something very different here! #marinebiology #anglerfish #sexualselection #oceanlife
