Did you know that there are sea animals that gaze at stars? It only looks that way because the eyes of a whitemargin stargazer are located on the top of its head. This fish buries itself underneath the sand and silt on the ocean floor, waiting to ambush its prey. The eyes and mouth are not covered. Did anyone ever watch the Spongebob Squarepants movie? There was a fish, like the stargazer, that used a lure in its mouth to attract prey. So you're swimming around and then see this tasty little treat. Just as you are about to take a bite, these beady eyes in the sand are staring right at you. Before you know it, you're inside a mouth.
