      Hi Neil,

      My favourite marine creature is a “copepod”. These are tiny marine animals, smaller than the size of a pin head! Copepods are really important to the marine food web- they eat algae, and are an important food source for many of our fish species (such as cod). If you look on my profile you can see what these creatures look like 🙂
