Mussels typically live in the intertidal zone, which is the area of the shore that is covered and uncovered by the tides. They can be found attached to rocks or other substrates in this zone, where they are able to feed and survive in the constantly changing environment.
Changing Tides was created in 1976.

Many animals living on the seashore have to adapt to the changing tides every day. They may need to find shelter, food, or avoid predators depending on whether it’s low tide or high tide. This constant cycle of tides shapes their behaviors and survival strategies.
