      La grandaj balenoj estas "ĝibaj balenoj" (Megaptera novaeangliae), kiuj manĝas planktonojn kaj krilojn (tiuj lastaj estas ege malgrandaj salikoketsimilaj bestoj; ĉu vi scias, kio estas salikoketo?).

      Krill are also called luminous shrimp or luminous crayfish, because they have light organs on their eyes and body that emit yellow-green light (bioluminescence).
