Very difficult to find, and even rather rare, this octopus is visible in night diving. Measuring a few centimeters, this one hides in the corals and remains very shy.
He eats small shrimps, crabs and shells.
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
