We have a whale of a test to tickle your tentacles. How many of these marine animals can you guess?
How well do you know your marine life?
If you spend enough time on the water, you may have already encountered some of the creatures featured in our slideshow. Click through to see how many you can name and to learn a bit more about the sea whereupon you sail. Whether they’re cute and cuddly or creepy and crawly, these animals all have a function to fill in the ocean environment, and we all have a responsibility to protect that environment, both for our own continued enjoyment and for the wildlife that call it home.
Can you match the sea babies with their parents? Take the quiz now and test your knowledge.
