Below the surface of the worlds oceans, lakes, and rivers (aquaria as well) exist a vast world teeming with spectacular life. It is a world bursting with unbelievable colours and abundant treasures of exquisite existence.
The beauty is ostensibly never-ending and unfortunately this fascinating environment is mostly unseen, unexplored, or undiscovered by the human eye. |

The zebra's flehmen response also called the flehmen position, flehmen reaction, flehming, or flehmening (from German flehmen, meaning to curl the upper lip), is a particular type of curling of the upper lip in ungulates, felids, and many other mammals, which facilitates the transfer of pheromones and other scents into the vomeronasal organ, also called the Jacobson's Organ. |
