Sardines

Sardines

Visitors look at some of the 10,000 sardines in a tank at the Noboribetsu Marine Park NIXE in Hokkaido. Two sharks and three rays live together with the sardines in the tank that opened in July.

    'Live together' - is that a euphemism?

    why, every time they show beautiful fish pictures, do you imagine a fish meal? Sardines have a lot of bones but are full of DHA which will make you smart. Highly recommended for univirsity students.

    I wonder if the sardines are female or male.

    They are chasing each other like junior high kids in the hallway between classes, and the Principal is the shark trying to nail all that break the rules.

    Are the sardines too small to interest the shark? You would think the shark would scoop that tasty goodness up in one bite.
