Description
Exhibit description | Kardauodegiai – unikalūs ir ypač įdomūs gyvūnai. Žemėje jie išliko praktiškai nepakitę milijonus metų. Jų pilvelis baigiasi aštriu kardo pavidalo spygliu. Kūną dengia storas, į arklio kanopą panašus šarvas. Priekinėje jo dalyje kardauodegiai turi porą sudėtinių akių, tačiau be jų kardauodegiai turi dar net 8 akis, išdėstytas įvairiose kūno vietose! Šie gyvūnai yra paplitę Atlanto vandenyno Šiaurės Amerikos rytinėje pakrantėje. Gyvena 10–40 metrų gylyje, įsirausę į smėlį ar dumblą. Minta dvėseliena, kirmėlėmis, moliuskais. Be visų minėtų įdomybių, šie gyvūnai turi dar ir mėlyną kraują, kuris yra labai vertinamas ir naudojamas medicinoje. Jei į kardauodegių kraują patenka bakterijų, jis pakeičia spalvą. Dėl to farmacijoje jis naudojamas užterštumui bakterijomis nustatyti. Aprašą parengė A. Patapavičienė |
