Crabs
Horseshoe crabs
Jellyfish

We'll be hunting the little critters in the Bell Island Marsh:

We'll also pick up some of their food: a string-like green algae (Vaucheria litorea).
After that, we'll take them to BOSSLab and set them up in a tank with instant ocean and sunlight.
Bring shoes/boots you can get deeply muddy.Thanks,Ian Hawkins
