Fried egg jellyfish are free-swimming ocean animals with bright yellow domes and trailing tentacles. Also known as the egg-yolk jellyfish, they come from the Phylum cnidaria, which encompasses over 11,000 animals that have bodies made from a jelly-like substance and have a single orifice and body cavity. Fried egg jellyfish can be found throughout the open ocean, at depths of up to 165 feet. Some prefer the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, while others are typically found over deep basins in the Pacific Ocean. Have you seen a fried egg jellyfish in its natural setting?

Frilled sharks currently cover two species within the Chlamydoselachus genus, in the family of Chalmydocelachidae; inside the order of Hexanchiformes. Both species look so alike that it was only after inspecting their internal differences that they were differentiated. Hexanchiformes means "six gills", and sharks in this order have six (or sometimes seven) gills, as opposed to the usual five in other species. This group contains the most primitive sharks in the world, like the relatively well-known Greenland shark, the longest-living vertebrate known. Are you in the know about frilled sharks?

Flying fish jump out of the water and can glide for extraordinary distances on their wing-shaped pectoral fins, which are shaped to generate lift, just like a plane wing. Flying fish have been recorded 'flying' for up to 45 seconds. That's almost four times as long as the Wright brothers' first flight. Their average distance is about the same as the first flight, at around 50m or 180ft, but they're capable of travelling much further than that. Are you knowledgeable about flying fish?

Galago, also known as bush babies, are small arboreal primates found in Sub-Saharan Africa. They have large eyes, bat-like ears and remarkable jumping ability. There are currently 23 species of bush babies in the Galagidae family. They are nocturnal creatures and consequently have large forward facing saucer-eyes to allow as much light into them as possible when foraging in trees at night. Before this survey, were you aware of galagos?

The Goliath Birdeater inhabit rainforests in Northern South America from Venezuela, French Guiana and south into Brazil – and most notably they live in deep burrows in the ground. They are nocturnal and are often found in upland marshy or swampy regions. Thankfully, they're relatively harmless, and they don't eat as many birds as their name or reputation suggests, preferring to diet on insects, worms, frogs and rodents. If faced with a spider the size of a dinner plate, with an abdomen like a brown, furry tennis ball and fangs as long as your little toe, would you get excited?
