Nudibranchs just might be the most charismatic of sea slugs, with their astonishing variety of colors, shapes, and sizes. And because they live almost everywhere in the world’s oceans, you may have encountered one without even knowing it.
Marine biologist and Museum Curator Jessica Goodheart takes you on a deep dive into the wild world of nudibranchs, including her research on the fascinating ways they defend themselves. (Spoiler alert: if you’re a jellyfish, you won’t like their predatory tactics!)
