Donkey Dung Sea Cucumber
The Donkey Dung Sea Cucumber has rolled skin folds and is dark gray to black
in color. Found in a variety of sea floor environments and from very shallow to
deeper water.
The recoil response of a
startled sea cucumber has inspired a new material
that could one day be used to build brain implants
for patients with Parkinson's disease.
