Crab sideways walks in to tell us that there are nearly 4000 species of crab like him coming from far and wide, and living in both the water and on land.

The butterfly fish takes some time out from being good-looking to tell us how he pecks at coral with his long snout for food, and how he uses his good-looks to confuse and camouflage himself.

The sawfish wakes up from his sleep to show us all of the uses for his saw-shaped nose, including catching food, digging and defending himself.

Here, flying around a pond, we meet a newly grown up dragonfly. While she may have spent two years growing up underwater, she's only going to be an adult for two weeks.

The aggressive and pushy lionfish shows us what he's made of and why few fish would dare to mess with them, and to those that would, he's a kitten.

Meet the moth, a voiceless critter that dreams of one day being in the spotlight. She tells us about how she loves the light and flower nectar but it's a shame she doesn't get more attention like her relative, the butterfly.

We meet Goldfish in his tank, where he shows us where he came from and he explains their three month memory and unique ability to see in colour. Goldfish explains they are social animals who love much bigger spaces.

Insulted by the salt left in the garden, this slug begins to tell us how wrong we are about him. With his 25,000 teeth, he eats things like dead leaves, fungus, and dog poo all over the world.

Jellyfish shows us how they catch their prey and fend off predators using their stinging tentacles. Also, they can see their food after they eat it because of their see-through bodies.

Giant Clam explains what they eat that help them to grow from being very tiny clams to giant ones. They also have a very effective defence mechanism that helps them live for up to 100 years.

Three schools. Three Australian states. Three missions. In this episode of Project Planet, the journey of our three schools and their quest to become sustainable culminates in three very different ways. From constructing a sustainable oasis, to making a mural with a message, to rapping it out with a song full of purpose, our Waste Warriors have truly made a difference on this beautiful planet.

In this episode of Project Planet we learn all about sustainable practices in gardening, grocery shopping and saving water. From 'nude food' to 'insect hotels' to 'the big bad packaging wolf', this episode of Project Planet is full of surprises. Follow our students from all around Australia as they continue to pursue protecting and sustaining this beautiful planet called Earth.
