Aurora jellyfish
Aurora the octopus  - and a jellyfish
(They told us that the female octopus lays eggs only once in her life, then stays by them until they hatch to protect them... which means she does not take time to eat and henceforth dies shortly after they 'hatch'.  Aurora had been at her 'post' since June 11, 2004!  The dots you see at the botom of the picture are hatched babies.)
