Underwater, mahi-mahi dart around at top speed, chasing sardines. “The surface was murky from the feast, with sea lions also joining the action,” says Merche Llobera. “Whales passed by, but none went for the sardines.”

I was amazed that nature inspires the most revolutionary creations. Its skin pattern reminds me of a binary code.”
