      Talking

      LOL Sean. I was actually thinking how cool it looks and behaves. Yes, I watch too many animal programs (LOL. Not.)
      Give me a few and I'll be back with our next fellow earthling.

      Question

      This one is estimated to reach over 3000 lbs and 11 ft. (3 m.) from fin tip to fin tip.
      Found in all oceans in tropical and temperate climates, and is know to eat gelatinous zooplankton (jellyfish) and probably small fishes and algae. During El Nino events they can be found as far north as Alaska.
      Who am I???

      I think it is an Octopus - Latin term: Polypus - but I am not sure of which one ... because there are over 200 known species.

      Am I close?

      playing hot and cold now.. your VERY VERY HOT!!! LOL


      Sigh...... I cant do it.... I cant string ya along..... lol

      yes Sphinx! its an octopus.
      The mimic octopus, Thaumoctopus mimicus, is a species of octopus that has a strong ability to mimic other creatures. It grows up to 60 cm (2 feet) in length. Its normal colouring consists of brown and white stripes or spots.

      Living in the tropical seas of South East Asia, it was not discovered officially until 1998, off the coast of Sulawesi. The octopus mimics the physical likeness and movements of more than fifteen different species, including sea snakes, lionfish, flatfish, brittle stars, giant crabs, sea shells, stingrays, flounders, jellyfish, sea anemones, and mantis shrimp.[1] [2] It accomplishes this by contorting its body and arms, and changing colour.

      Many octopus species are extremely flexible. For example, one octopus the size of a volleyball can actually squeeze its entire body into a soft drink can.[3] If the mimic octopus has that flexibility, it would explain in part how it mimics other creatures.

      Although all octopuses can change colour and texture, and many can blend with the sea floor, appearing as rocks, the mimic octopus is the first octopus species ever observed to impersonate other animals.[4][2]

      Based on observation, the mimic octopus may decide which animal to impersonate depending on local predators. For example, when the octopus was being attacked by damselfish, it was observed that the octopus appeared as a banded sea snake, a damselfish predator. The octopus impersonates the snake by turning black and yellow, burying six of its arms, and waving its other two arms in opposite directions. [5]

      The mimic octopus is often confused with Wunderpus photogenicus, another recently discovered species. The Wunderpus can be distinguished by the pattern of strong, fixed white markings on its body.

      Question What Creature Am I?

      This creature shares the same name of a tasty fruit (kind of looks like the fruit too, actually), apparently they lay the largest egg in relation to their body size (maybe the same size as the fruit?), and this creature is a celebrated as a National symbol.

      It is indeed the Kiwi! Excellent Michael - your turn!

      Question What Creature Am I?

      This Creature inhabits all the world's oceans except for the Arctic. Their lifespan is about 80 years. They can rest or sleep underwater for several hours at a time. Some of this species change eating habits as they age. For instance, this creature can be mainly carnivorous from hatchling until juvenile size; they then progressively shift to an herbivorous diet. Good Luck!!

      Specifics are cool, but I wasn't looking for them. Anyway - you're right Chad - it's a Sea Turtle!
