I Hate How Being Skinny Is Glorified In The Media

How Wings Are Attached to the Backs of Angels 

So today while playing New Horizon, I caught a familiar looking fish that I didn't really know much about. Though called the Napoleonfish in the game, I know it as the Humphead Wrasse.

According to Blathers (that lovable owl) this fish is endangered, but doesn't really give much more information than that. It really left me, a person fascinated by the outside world, wanting more than just that measly bit of fact and boy does the game not do this fish justice.

Found in the coral reefs of the indo Pacific region, the humphead wrasse is a very large fish, growing up to 2 meters long.

They are a powerful fish, with strong teeth, able to break down clams and mollusks with little to no effort. So, if this fish is so powerful, why is it endangered?

Well there are multiple reasons, but one reason that stood out to me is that not a lot of people know about this fish. The lack of awareness of this species. So I've decided to do my part and bring awareness to this fish.

This animal is classified as endangered, however it is also considered to be "conservation dependent" meaning that by this point it is a species that relies on our help. Human help.

So why care about this animal? Fantastic question. As mentioned earlier, the humphead wrasse eats shellfish and other hard to eat animals, but the most notable thing that this fish eats is the dreaded crown-of-thorns starfish.

This invertebrate feeds on coral reefs, and with very few predators to prevent it from over populating, these starfish can strip entire reefs of it's coral which is vital to all life in the ocean.

The humphead wrasse is one of the few animals that can withstand the crown-of-thorns' toxins, and can keep the population in check.

But how can we help more?

You can:

Educate yourself more about the species.

Support the WWF, as they have a program that helps release humphead wrasse back into the wild.

Do not fish for this animal. If you catch it by accident, let it go.

And finally respect this amazing animal for it's majesty and power.

so I was listening to music and got this message… at first I assumed that my boyfriend sent the wrong person a message asking for toilet paper, but when i got up to bring him some i saw his phone on the bed and realized 

he left his phone in the room and only took his switch with him, so all he could do was desperately tweet an SOS
