Today I learnt about 5 different biomes. What is a biome? A biome are five major types. Grassland, forest,desert,aquatic and tundra all these biomes have different animals the live under the land or on the land. The biome I like the most is the aquatic biome because it has lots of fishes and other sea creatures that some people have never seen and only in photos. This is one creature from the aquatic biome. this sea creature is a sunfish. A sunfish like a shark but without a tail they are very huge that they are the heaviest bony fish in the world. They can grow over 10 feet long and more than 8 feet from fin to fin. Sun fish don't have tails because instead of a tail they have structure called a clavus. A sunfishes life span is up to ten years in cavity.
