whelk egg case identification
So whatever the weather you can learn about and search for eggcases. One of best times to start protecting an animal is when threats are known. Egg cases may indicate that nursery grounds are nearby and can assist in the conservation of skates and whelks. The whorl is the spiraled part of the shell when you are looking at it head on. If you can see a tiny shark or a tiny ray moving in cases like the ones on the left, take them to your local aquarium who may be very interested in seeing if they can be brought to the point of hatching. "These egg cases are laid by the whelk, a sea snail that eats crabs and other mollusks," Cape Hatteras National Seashore explained on Facebook Saturday. ), please go to this page. PO Box 642 //
