The Unstartled Steppes of Dream

Inquiries, Requests, and a Place to Spill Your Guts   Submissions  
I am Ashley.
This is my personal blog. If you want just marine biology, go here.
I love the world; I really don't like people.
I balance all this animosity towards the human race with being an almost always kind and gentle being to all creatures.
I'm highly introverted and nature is my primary escape from people.
Creepy-crawly-slimy things are my favorites. Dinosaurs are fantastic.
Future marine biologist; presently an amateur entomologist, ichthyologist, artist, biologist, and writer.
Literature, video game, and music connoisseur.
I'm so full of passion for the world that it hurts.
I think a lot, I laugh a lot, I love a lot.
Almost none of the photos are mine and only some of the drawings are mine.
Listen in.

On January 11th, off the coast of Hawaii, a dolphin who got into some trouble approached divers for help. The dolphin, whose pectoral fin was pierced by a fishing hook and whose body was entangled in fishing line, let out a cry and swam up to one of the divers, nudging him gently. The diver, Keller Laros, said it was obvious that the animal was looking for help. He was able to cut the fishing line and remove the hook from the animal’s fin, but when more divers approached the dolphin to help untangle it, it swam off and didn’t return.

The Great Blue Hole is one of the world’s most exciting dive sites. Not recommended for the fainthearted nor novice divers, it is a dangerous yet thrilling dive with beautiful ancient stalactites hanging at about 38m depth.
