Manta RayThe manta ray is the largest species of the rays, which have evolved from bottom-feeders, like other rays, and then adapted to become open ocean filter feeders, allowing them to grow larger than other ray species. Mantas display curiosity around humans, and swim among divers. They often surface near boats with stopped engines. |

Blue WhaleBlue Whales are currently the largest animal existing or known to have existed. They are baleen whales and feed almost exclusively on krill, eating up to 40 million krill (3600 kilograms) in a day. They were abundant in nearly all the oceans until the beginning of the twentieth century, then hunted almost to extinction by whalers until protected by the international community in 1966. |

OctopusOctopuses have two eyes, four pairs of arms and a hard beak with its mouth at the center point of the arms. Most octopuses have no internal or external skeleton, allowing them to squeeze through tight places. They are highly intelligent, probably the most intelligent of all invertebrates. |

Basking SharkThe basking shark is the second largest living shark, after the whale shark, and is found in all the world's temperate oceans. It is a slow moving and generally harmless, passive filter feeder, filtering zooplankton, small fish and invertebrates. |
