1. Ocean life

2. Ocean life exists in levels
Surface ocean (reefs and shallows)
Thermocline (water that gets colder as you go deeper)
Deep ocean (dark zone)

3. Surface ocean and shallows
Coral reefs exist in warm,shallows off the coast of larger land masses
Most aquatic mammals and seaturtles prefer to stay in this region of the ocean where they have easy access to air

4. Surface Ocean and shallows
This water is always the warmest, as cold water is denser and sinks to the bottom
This is where most species of “bony fish” are found. Small prey is abundant and the pressure is not too much for them at this depth

5. Thermocline Light gradually becomes less and less
Cartilaginous fish are made to handle pressure changes and often prefer to stay in the darker depths to hunt.

6. Thermocline
The water is also colder, as warm water rises and cold water sinks
Bony Fish that inhabit this area are rare and often look like something from a horror novel because of the increased pressure

7. Deep ocean
This is well into the midnight zone, meaning that no light penetrates this far down
Very few fish bodies are suited for the thousands of pounds of pressure that are put on anything that far under the water

8. Deep ocean
Msyteries still abound and while much small ocean life can be found around thermal vents on the ocean floor, giant pseudopods and crustaceans have been glimpsed in the murky depths.

9. But there is one thing scarier than even a giant squid. . .
It kills without mercy, all species
It is literally everywhere, there is no escape
You’ve seen it, even here on the land
Although it is most commonly found in the ocean in giant masses!
Its. . .
