[National Geographic Wallpaper] Krill (크릴새우)


Kaikoura Canyon, New Zealand
1997
Maria Stenzel

Just off the Kaikoura Peninsula, the ocean floor gives way to "an undersea canyon where currents mix and well up, producing a broth rich in nutrients. Drawn to the food are creatures great and small, from [these] tiny krill to the apex predator[s] ... the sperm whale and the giant squid."

(Text adapted from "Deep Mysteries of Kaikoura Canyon," June 1998, National Geographic magazine)
