animal sea pig





animal sea pig
The Sea Pig in name alone sounds like a creature worth checking out. Maybe it’s a gluttonous finned fatbody or some sort of nutty offshoot of a walrus. But it isn’t. It’s a thing that moves around like it just burst out of Wilford Brimley and it feeds by absorbing minerals through its crazy tentacled “mouth”. It sounds like a creature worth checking out but in actually it should be never even known of. Especially considering that when these blubbery sacs of troubling matter are spotted, it is not in groups of one or two.

Scotoplanes, the sea pig, is a marine invertebrate animal. It is a genus of deep-sea holothurian (Class Holothuroidea in the phylum Echinodermata-popularly known as sea cucumbers) in the family Elpidiidae (order Elasiopoda).

Sea pig may refer to:
Scotoplanes, a genus of deep-sea holothurians (sea cucumbers) commonly called Sea pigs
some species of porpoise or dolphin or dugong
in some countries (Germany, Russia, Hungary, Serbia etc.) Guinea pigs are usually referred to as Sea pigs, because they were brought to these countries overseas.
