those are their breathing holes
How a Lamprey birth
They look like eels.
The lamprey in Lake Ontario have been reported as large as 3 feet long.
Lamprey eels are parasites so when they hook on to other animals they suck the animals blood. :P
Lamprey eels come from the Atlantic Ocean. They can now be found in the Great Lakes believed to have found their way there through shipping canals.
because all the other fish are jealous of them XD
No - an autograph is someone's signature of their name. You probably meant, "Autotroph". Lampreys are eels. Eels must find food and eat it, so they are not autotrophs.
The common types of eels that can be found around Vancouver Island, BC include the Pacific lamprey, the conger eel, and the sharp-tail eel. These eels inhabit the waters around the island and are part of the local marine ecosystem.
Not all eels are jawless fish, only the lamprey eel. The do not have a jaw, but have a round mouth lined with teeth. Other eels, like the moray, have got one heck of a jaw!
Like most animals electric eels have two eyes but they are not very useful. However, their sense of hearing is much more advanced than most fish. They can also produce a near continuous low voltage signal that can be used to 'detect' other living things.
Lamprey have a well developed sense of smell which they use to locate prey. Lamprey attach to their prey using a toothed sucker disc and rasp away with a file like tongue so they can feed on the blood.
The LAMPREY, a long serpent like fish with no bones, so elastic its head can twist all the way around and backwards. It has a suction cup instead of jaws. Inside of this is rows and rows of sharp teeth. The lamprey has one nostril like a whales blow hole on its head. It has a row of hole like operculum that act as openings to the gills so the fish can breath. They are slimy ornery creatures when handled. The lamprey can detect electrical fields generated by muscle movements of prey. These creatures look almost identical to leeches, but they have eyes and are a foot to three feet long. ________________ Pirahna a piranha is a frog
