The Great Barrier Reef Fact Hunt

In class we have been finding out about the Great Barrier Reef.
Here are a couple of videos about the reef
The Whitsunday Islands
Tropical North Queensland

Now visit the National Geographic site and complete this fact hunt. It's quite tricky but I'm sure you bloggers can cope!
1. Find a creature that is poisonous to other animals.
2. Find an animal that feeds on coral.
3. List two fish in that live in this habitat.
4. Find a mollusk that does not have a shell.
5. Name a creature in this habitat that changes color.6. Name a marine mammal in this habitat.
7. Find a creature that has tentacles.
8. Name a fish that is overfished by humans.
9. Find a fish that relies on another creature for protection and shelter.
10. Which animal attacks its prey with a sharp, spear-like tooth?

1HP if you have a go
2HP if you get them all correct
