Glaucus atlanticus is a species of small, blue sea slug, a pelagic aeolid nudibranch, a shell-less gastropod mollusk in the family Glaucidae. These sea slugs are pelagic; they float upside down by using the surface tension of the water to stay up, where they are carried along by the winds and ocean currents. Wikipedia
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Mollusca
Class: Gastropoda
Order: Nudibranchia
Suborder: Cladobranchia
Family: Glaucidae
Genus: Glaucus
Species: G. atlanticus
Are Blue Dragon sea slugs poisonous: For this reason, the Blue Glaucus poses a much greater threat to humans than the Portuguese man o' war. Picking one up may result in a painful sting and symptoms similar to those of its prey. These include nausea, vomiting, and pain. But like other sea slug species, the Blue Glaucus itself isn't venomous.

The snakeheads are members of the freshwater perciform fish family Channidae, native to parts of Africa and Asia. These elongated, predatory fish are distinguished by their long dorsal fins, large mouths, and shiny teeth. They breathe air with gills, which allows them to migrate short distances over land. Wikipedia
Family: Channidae; Fowler, 1934
Order: Anabantiformes
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Actinopterygii
Kingdom: Animalia
Suborder: Channoidei; Berg, 1940
Can snakeheads walk on land: Snakehead fish have evolved to “walk” on land! They propel themselves forward by moving their head and back fin in opposite directions. Underwater, a snakehead absorbs oxygen through its gills, just like other fish.
How long can a snakehead fish live out of water: Because snakeheads are obligate air-breathers, they can live in poorly-oxygenated stagnant water. Out of water, they can survive for up to four days.

Biden winds down his speech by saying of Putin, “for God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power.” 1:23 Oopsies... that’s not going to escalate anything. They’re already on damage control. 🤭
