The marine collection at a recent UC Davis Biodiversity Day included this sunfish. A nearby sign read: "The ocean sunfish's food of choice is jellyfish. Their digestive tract has a thick slimy lining that is believed to prevent it from being stung by its prey's tentacles." (Photo by Kathy Keatley Garvey)
