Bat Ray – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Bat Ray:
The Bat Ray is a is a stingray found in muddy estuaries and bays, kelp beds and rocky-bottomed shoreline in the eastern Pacific Ocean, usually along the coastline from the Gulf of California up to Oregon. They can live in waters with various levels of saline, so they are able to venture far into brackish waters searching for food. Bat Rays feed on a variety of sea animals, such as crustaceans, mollusks and small fish. They beat their large pectoral fins (or "wings") along the sandy bottoms of the ocean to expose their prey. Like other rays, they have a sharp stinger in their tails, which can be used to defend itself against potential predators. Bat Rays are fairly placid animals and are very popular in ocean themed parks (such as the Monterey Bay Aquarium) and will tolerate being touched by humans.

There are only an estimated 1,100 individuals in the wild, and because of this number - along with the fact there are very low levels of genetic variations - there are very aggressive conservation efforts being made in order to save the species from extinction.

The Pacific Walrus is a pinniped and one of three sub species of walrus. They inhabit the Bering, Chukchi, and Laptev Seas. They're very large animals, with the bulls growing 10-12 feet and the cows 8-9 feet. They feed on clams, snails, crabs, shrimp and worms. Just like trees, you can tell the age of at walrus by looking at the rings in their tusks. The rest of the year (late summer and fall) the walrus tends to form massive aggregations of tens of thousands of individuals on rocky beaches or outcrops. The migration between the ice and the beach can be long distance and dramatic. In late spring and summer hundreds of thousands of these animals migrate from the Bering Sea to the Chukchi sea through the Bering Strait.

Northern Elephant Seal – Signed Fine Art Print

The Northern Elephant Seal is one of two species of elephant seal (the Southern Elephant seal being the other.) It is a member of the Phocidae family - which are "true seals." They are native to the beaches and sand dunes of the Pacific coast of North America. Elephant Seals are massive, and the males are much larger than the females. Large bull males can weigh in upwards of 5,000 pounds (2,3000 kg) and be 14 feet long (4 meters.) Male elephant seals are fiercely territorial and are famous for their brutal fights with one another during the mating season, when a dominate male is protecting his harem of females from a challenger. Although the battles are long and bloody, they are rarely fatal and generally the loser is allowed to slip away to a less desirable part of the beach.

Larger Pacific Striped Octopus – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Larger Pacific Striped Octopus:
The Larger Pacific Striped Octopus is a species of octopus native to They have been much in the news because of their behavior, which is so different and in many ways contrary to what is generally held to be our common understanding of what is believed to be standard octopus behavior. This species appears to thrive in captivity, will breed in a tank filled with other individuals, and mate beak to beak, all of which is contrary to normal octopus behavior. Tanks can even have more than one male, which again is highly unusual. The species does not yet have a scientific or binominal name. They are currently being studies at the California Academy of Sciences and University of California at Berkeley.
