Widely unexplored deep-sea anglerfishes. Or the biodiversity of invertebrates in our oceans. There is still so much out there we do not know yet. We know so little about all the organisms that inhabit the waters of our oceans. They say that we know more about the moon than about the deep sea. Is that one reason why so many people are fascinated about life under water?<\/p>\n<p>I cannot remember quite exactly when I became fascinated by the sea. Even though I saw the sea for the first time when I was eighteen, books and nature documentaries had already aroused my interest in the ocean world and the desire to explore this mysterious place on our earth.<\/p>\n<p>I love to be at the sea. But I do not live close to it. Thus, it is always special for me to be anywhere close-by. In Stralsund I did not explore the sea by boat or anything similar, but I wanted to visit the Ozeaneum to learn more about the oceans and all the creatures that live in it. In this blog entry you will be taken on to an exciting day through the Ozeaneum and all the things I have learned.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-15113-3\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-15113-3-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-15113-3-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"3\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-8b5b6f678277-15113\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1.jpg\" width=\"1336\" height=\"891\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1.jpg 1336w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1-840x560.jpg 840w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-1-272x182.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1336px) 100vw, 1336px\" title=\"Ozeaneum\" alt=\"Ozeaneum\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-15113-3-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-15113-3-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"4\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-8b5b6f678277-15113\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2.jpg\" width=\"1336\" height=\"891\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2.jpg 1336w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2-840x560.jpg 840w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-2-272x182.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1336px) 100vw, 1336px\" title=\"Ozeaneum\" alt=\"Ozeaneum\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-15113-4\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-15113-4-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-15113-4-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"5\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p>However, a museum should not be a place ticked off of any bucket list.

Harbor porpoises prefer the shallow and calm waters of the Baltic Sea when mothers give birth to their calves. They will spend several months in these waters. In the exhibition, however, you will not only learn more about their biology, you will also hear that researchers assume that there exist two separate populations in the Baltic Sea. A western population with probably about 30.000 harbor porpoises, and in contrast, harbor porpoises in the southwest of the Baltic Sea with only about 200-600 animals. 100 years ago, harbor porpoises were more numerous in the Baltic Sea.

The penguins in the Ozeaneum, however, stem from other zoological facilities that participate in the European Endangered Species Program. Thus, these penguins were not torn out of their natural habitat.<\/p>\n<p>However, Humboldt penguins are according to the IUCN classified as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iucnredlist.org\/species\/22697817\/93641822\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">\"vulnerable\"<\/a>. Even though the Ozeaneum educates visitors about these penguins, I felt sad about seeing these special birds at the top of a building in Stralsund. Why do we have to breed penguins anywhere in Germany or any other zoological facility for their conservation? Do all the threats Humboldt penguins are exposed to in their natural habitat justify breeding them in captivity? Some of their main threats are over-fishing, marine pollution, the destruction of their breeding burrows due to the guano mining, and the death in fishing nets as by-catch. I'm sure, there are even more threats...<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-15113-32\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-15113-32-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-15113-32-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"36\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-15113-32-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\"><strong>Interesting:<\/strong><\/span> Most other penguin species live further south in the Southern Polar Seas.

Actually, there are many signs in the Ozeaneum that lead you through the exhibition halls. However, after the penguins we definitely lost our orientation in the building. As I really wanted to see the 1:1 Giants of the Sea exhibition, we did not stay for such a long time in the exhibition hall where the Exploration and Utilization of the Seas exhibition was located. Of course, this was another exhibition not to be missed. However, we already had to digest so much information. Thus, we stayed in that exhibition just for a short time. I would have been interested to stay a little bit longer, but it was just too much. The exhibition is, among other things, about global warming.<\/p>\n<p>As we were full with information, we went to the 1:1 Giants of the Sea exhibition hall at the end of our visit. It is a vast exhibition hall where you can feel like being under water. At least a little bit. A blue light shone onto the marine organism exhibits. The exhibits hanged from the ceiling. One interesting fish, I unfortunately have never seen in the sea - but now in the Ozeaneum as an exhibit - is the ocean sunfish.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-15113-34\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-15113-34-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-15113-34-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"38\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-8b5b6f678277-15113\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16.jpg\" width=\"1336\" height=\"891\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16.jpg 1336w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16-840x560.jpg 840w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-16-272x182.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1336px) 100vw, 1336px\" title=\"Ozeaneum\" alt=\"Sunfish in the Ozeaneum\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-15113-35\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-15113-35-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-15113-35-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"39\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p>Think about the eggs of a sunfish and the larvae that hatch from these eggs.

In order to keep the concentration of salt low in the body, fishes are able to secrete salt via pores in their gills.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-15113-53\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-15113-53-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-15113-53-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"58\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-8b5b6f678277-15113\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23.jpg\" width=\"1336\" height=\"891\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23.jpg 1336w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23-840x560.jpg 840w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Ozeaneum-23-272x182.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1336px) 100vw, 1336px\" title=\"Ozeaneum\" alt=\"Fish in the Ozeaneum\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-15113-54\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-15113-54-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-15113-54-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"59\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Salinity_influences_the_size_of_mussels\"><\/span>4.

These fishes are now smaller and younger as they used to be in the past. Especially older female fishes would be important for reproduction, as they produce more offspring. The industrial fishing methods are most damaging for marine wildlife. They - and of course the consumers as well - are responsible for the shrinking fish stocks. Now, often young fishes are caught in the fishing nets.

Additionally, more remote places are visited by people. People who want to explore unspoiled nature. But especially loud are underwater explosions. They are fatal for many marine animals (see my blog entry about the <a href=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/en\/harbor-porpoises-in-the-flensburg-fjord\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">harbor porpoises in the Flensburg Fjord<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-15113-84\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-15113-84-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-15113-84-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"89\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-15113-84-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\"><strong>Information:<\/strong><\/span> Loud oceans influence the life of marine organisms.
