Critter of the Week: Sea hares

From the collecton Critter of the Week

Sea hares are a type of sea slug. But unlike the nudibranchs covered back in 2016, these slugs can get pretty big: around 30cm long! One type of sea hare, known from a 2006 sighting in the Poor Knights Islands, grows to over half a metre in length.
