4About it
A nautilus is a sea animal related to the octopus and the squid, but it lives in a coiled, striped shell. Inside, the shell is split into chambers: the nautilus lives in the biggest, newest one and fills the older ones with gas and a little water to float up or sink down. It has up to 90 small tentacles and swims by squirting water. Animals like it have lived in the sea for about 500 million years.
Tap it and, startled, it jets back a little and pulls its tentacles in behind its hood. It waits, peeks out halfway, then slowly reaches out again.
