Admire the beautiful blue dragon on the seabed

They spend most of their lives floating in the blue waters of the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans. What makes them float on the surface of the water is the air balls under the belly.

Although life is quite 'relaxed', this animal is not completely harmless. This invertebrate, only 3cm long, has a 'weird' menu. It feeds on poisonous animals such as jellyfish, especially the Portugese Man-O'-War, a species known for its 'trophies' that kill people and leave extremely painful stings.

Glaucus can swallow this whole jelly without pain, because under the skin of this species contains discs, which act as barriers, and release mucus to protect the green dragon from the effects of this shot.

Not only can it protect itself from poison, it can store this amount of poison for later use. The poison is 'stored' in the 'fingers' attached to the body. Blue dragons have about 84 'fingers' like that.

When there is not enough food, it can eat anything to survive. Scientists believe that this Glaucus blue dragon is more poisonous than the Man-O'-War jellyfish.

This species can deceive enemies by disguising themselves. Their bodies have bright and dark green patches to help them camouflage while floating on ocean waves.

Although it belongs to the molluscs family, this species has absolutely no shell. It was first discovered in the 17th century.

Green dragon is a bisexual species. When mating, both children lay eggs. They lay eggs on wooden pieces floating on the sea or on the bones of the enemy.

When removed from the water, this species tends to curl up until it returns to the water environment.
