Art, Geometry and Mathematics... by a fish!

A tiny Japanese pufferfish creates a grand sand sculpture of mathematical perfection on the featureless seabed by using his fins to dig furrows. He uses this to attract the attention of passing females...

... To attract a female fish, the Japanese pufferfish will work 24 hours a day, for an entire week in a row, to create the most stunning sand art. This most incredible video from BBC Earth gives us a glorious look at nature and fish in particular. After watching this video, people will hopefully look differently not only on fish, but on any other animal species and treat them more kindly.

And now, ESO students, enjoy David Attenborough's mesmerising voice and beautiful accent: it is an utter pleasure to learn from each and every of his carefully chosen words.
