There are thousands of species of cockroach in the world and only a few dozen species are known to associate with humans. The rest quietly go about their day keeping the forest clean. Some are quite lovely.

Giant isopods live in an extreme habitat: the deep sea. It can live more than 1600 feet (500m) below the ocean’s surface, dark depths with less than one-millionth of the sunlight found at the surface.

Eastern box turtles are usually found near ponds, fields, meadows, &woodlands throughout the eastern half of the US. Eastern box turtles are one of the most commonly seen in the wild. The reptile’s carapace is dome-shaped and covers most of its body, and has ridges and furrows that develop with age.
