Overview of Marine Monkeys: Sea monkeys are actually a species of brine shrimp in the genus Artemia, despite their common marketing portrayal as interesting and whimsical animals. Sea monkeys, though diminutive in stature, have captivated the interest of numerous people as both pets and educational resources. This overview explores the characteristics of sea monkeys, their fascinating past as household pets, and their importance to marine ecosystems. Why Do Sea Monkeys Exist? Known by their scientific name, Artemia, sea monkeys are small crustaceans that live all over the world in saltwater habitats. Their distinctive life cycle adaptations and shrimp-like appearance define them as members of the Artemiidae family. Their capacity to go into a state of cryptobiosis, where they can live in suspended animation until their surroundings are once again hospitable, is one of their most amazing characteristics. Because of this adaptation, sea monkeys are hardy animals in the marine environment, able to withstand harsh and variable environments. Since sea monkeys can be purchased in kits that let enthusiasts hatch and watch them at home, sea monkeys have become well-known as "instant pets" in popular culture. Typically, these kits contain Artemia eggs (cysts), a growth medium, and guidelines for hatching and taking care of the animals.
