I was though all animals use their intelligence to their survival.

The Atlantic Portuguese man o' war (Physalia physalis), also known as the Man-of-War, blue bubble, or floating terror, is a marine cnidarian of the family Physaliidae found in the Atlantic Ocean, as well as the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Its venomous tentacles can deliver a painful (and sometimes fatal) sting. Despite its outward appearance, the Portuguese man o' war is not a jellyfish but a siphonophore, which is distinguished from jellyfish in that it is not a single multicellular organism, but a colonial organism made up of specialized minute individual organisms called zooids.[1] These zooids are attached to one another and physiologically integrated to the extent that they cannot survive independently and function as if they were an individual organism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_man_o%27_war

And yet, when I have found wild owls in jungle night trecks or in the desert, not only the act very frendly but protect from poisonus snakes. They rub the hair in a Hello, like huge umbrellas! Not a sound comes from their flight. On one ocasion in Puerto Escondido beach, they opened a bar only for week-ends. In the week days, an unsuspecting white owl started to nest in there (maybe field black rats atracted him, they love coconuts on the beach). That Saturday when the bar owner opened at 8 am, the poor owl went out flying blinded with so much sunlight. When he detected my presence he went straight for me. Since my early infancy I lived in the woods where a Grand Duke family protected our barn from rodents, they were our pets and I know since then how they atack, or how they choose ones arm for landing, like this white owl did. I just raised my arm and he landed right on. I talked in a suthing voice to calm him whyle I peted him (the distresed ones were the ignorant & coward tourists sorounding us) and placed him under a empty camper in a prived home, so he would be sheltered until night time. Then he would seek a new location. Animals detect that I like & protect them, either in the wild or mascots that are lost. Many a times I have been adopted by spider monkeys, howler monkeys, young ocelots, cats, dogs... the problem is parting with them!!

Mr. Jean Loup. Thank you, for share with us.

Jellyfish don’t have a heart, or blood, or even a brain. They’ve survived five mass extinctions. And you can find them in every ocean, from pole to pole.
What’s their secret? Keeping it simple, but with a few dangerous tricks.

Most humans are having heart transplants, but brain transplants are impossible: lack of brains being the culprit!! Brain atrophy is a common desease with no cure, accelerated by cell phone adiction.

I visited Huatulco bays after they introduced 5 star hotels. As is common practice in the Pacific coast of México, no sewage treatment was included. That started a Red Tide plague that no one remembered before. Since I lived in the Yucatan Gulf Coast, I was "familiar" with Red tides: but in the Gulf area it's caused by the Sargasso algae piling up near the beach during high tide, and with the tide change, watter filters through the algae walls & traps thousand of fishes. That algae smells like some seafood is rotting, but that morning dawn we were picking up as many fishes as we could, to sell at inland markets.

So in Huatulco bays I never gave the Red Tide warning any importance, went in an inflatable raft rowing to a secluded beach, where snorkeling was 6 feet deep at the most, with pristine watter, corals and all type of sea life. We had a couple of inflated tyre cameras for resting while we observed, diving for closer looks or grab some dead shells or dead coral branches, feeding moray eels & playing with sting rays.

I noticed some isolated red jelly beans with a long hair underneath swimming at midwatter, but they were harmless. My lady companion was dark skined & when she rubbed one of those red jelly beans, it left a bluish line mark on her arm (for three days!). We arrived at noon & when it was 5 in the afternoon we decided to row back to the main bay and have a lobster with cold beers. I had left the raft with a rock on it at the beach, well away from any tide. I started swiming to shore when I bumped into a RED WALL!! The Red jelly beans had reproduced like crazy and invaded from bottom to surface. Since I did not want my companion to turn blue (natives get scared easily & no beer), I instructed her to remain floating atracting sharks while I fetched our raft.

One SLOW frog stroke into that red sea, another... and with the third SLOW frog stroke, all the Jelly beans started stinging with electrical discharges!! SLOWLY I receded back to clear watters, and started searching along the red wall for an option. I was not in pain but my skin was itching like hell. Then, between shore rocks and the red wall, there was a clear watter channel less than 3 feet wide, with the surf pushing and pulling all the time (an eternity of time!). The rocks were full of sleeping sea urchins to make things more interesting. I decided to have my front facing the sea urchins since they not only sting but leave those points into ones meat, and then they break!! As soon as the sea urchins felt me swiming, they moved all their spines outside for protection, half a foot long spines!! Never had I swimmed more carefully before...

After the longest time of that day I was on the beach puting the raft into the red watter and having my ankles stinged with electrical discharges. Then I rowed to rescue my lady in disstress, rowed back to the main bay & had LOTS of beer with lobster until the itching faded away. No, I did not turn blue...

Man!.. How wrong, when I assume you turn blue into one of these people.






Thank you for sharing the story was a real nail biter.


I must admit, the part " LOTS of beer with lobster" Boy oh Boy! I really miss the Lobster Yummy.....
Lobster cost a lot (beaucoup) money in Arizona per lbs.

spectacular!! Wow.... so cool...

Amazing!! Beautiful, Majestic and Breathtaking,... Tiny Birds

Hummingbirds in slow motion are beautifully epic. These tiny birds beat their wings so furiously it is hard to understand what is going on.
So Sam Hume and Simon Baxter visit a very special location in Los Angeles and use a high speed camera to reveal some of the hummingbirds' most intriguing behaviour.

I believe it's the only bird were both sides of the wing are flying surfaces, so the Hummingbird has lift with the wing coming ot going when vertical. On other birds the top of the wing is their only flying surface. The Hummingbird flyes more like an insect than a bird
