What is a sea creature?

• Animals like whales and fish spend all their lives in the sea.

• There are more than 24,000 different kinds of fish!

• Other animals like penguins and seals live on land but find their food in the sea.

• Penguins and seals are sea creatures too!

My favourite sea creatures are sharks and

manta rays.• Sharks are found all over the world and have been around since before dinosaurs!

• Great white sharks teeth are so sharp that they can break through bones!

• Sharks have an amazing sense of smell and can smell one tiny drop of blood in litres of seawater

• Even though they are huge, manta ray are not dangerous to people.

• Manta rays have the largest brains of all fish
