The Spiny World of Echinoderms! | JONATHAN BIRD'S BLUE WORLD

The Phylum Echinodermata contains animals like sea stars ("starfish"), sea urchins, crinoids, and sea cucumbers. These invertebrates get their name from the Greek meaning "spiny skin" and exist only in the ocean. In this marine science video, Jonathan explores the biology of echinoderms!

Thank you for doing this series on marine life groups! I’m learning so much about the diversity in our oceans!

[@BlueWorldTV]

Glad you are enjoying them!

[@adshameen]

Great video as always! The sea cucumber is popularly used in parts of asia as medicine to heal small cuts and wounds. We call it minyak gamat. Minyak (oil) gamat (sea cucumber)

[@TheDisabledGamersChannel]

It's crazy, i've been watching this channel for 6 years now and i still look forward to every new video, this channels like a part of my life, this was yet another great episode.

I started diving three years ago after getting the inspiration from watching your channel. Still love it when a new one is out. Keep it up, and thanks for everything

[@BlueWorldTV]

Awesome to hear!!

[@dtn8647]

These echinoderms you filmed loomed so beautiful

[@brandi-annpagano6702]

We've never heard of the basket sea stars. There are so many kinds; I had no idea! Thank you so much for these educational videos!

[@widget3672]

I've enjoyed these videos for years and having studied a degree that got me involved in learning about the diversity of the tree of life and aquatic organisms, it makes me so happy to see such top quality productions here on KZbin. Excellent descriptions, videography and wonderfully succinct. 👏

[@ExplosiveBrohoof]

I'm building a playlist here on KZbin that aims to robustly cover marine biology, and for the past month or so I've been adding videos to it on the marine invertebrates. Every time I move to a new major taxonomic group (with the exception of the lophophores, which I don't think you've made a video on yet), your videos are the first ones I add. Thanks a bunch for this awesome content!

[@BlueWorldTV]

That's awesome! Thanks for including us. No lophophores yet!

[@FintasticFilms]

I love these videos you do about different groups of marine life. I'm so happy we got 2 blue world videos this month!!

[@muhamadamirulhafiz2852]

Hey Jonathan, have you heard about Winter the dolphin? She passed away on November 11th. She was actually the reason how I got into dolphins..I watched the movie dolphin tale, and Jonathan Bird’s Blue World oh wait that’s you…pretty much got me started with marine biology all those years ago. I mean I’ve been interested in the RMS Titanic and HMHS Britannic as well, but I adventured out and got used to the water because of your videos. I also watched blue planet and ocean giants before I discovered your channel. I literally remember watching your Antarctica video when it first came out.

[@BlueWorldTV]

I did not hear that Winter died. What a bummer.

[@iqualityclub]

nobody ever cares about the camera man but he has -water proof camera (200$ - 600$) -good photagraph skills (999999999999999999999$ - 99999999999999999999999999999999999$) -and probaly is in danger the entire time so i respect him for that

Echinoderms are deuterostomes, just like us. So, outside of our own phylum, echinoderms and hemichordates are our closest relatives. Removing sandy and the fish, the SpongeBob character most closely related to us would be Patrick.
