Tunicate Invasion


Now I'm wondering that all those pretty orange drippy things that I showed school kids on the beach last summer, were in fact, invaders.

This story by Susan Gordon at the TNT talks about the invasion of a tunicate species that seems to act like an aquatic version of The Blob.

I'll have to keep a sharp eye out this summer and report this out for someone to sprinkle salad dressing on it (read the story for this to make sense).
