I found a strange creature while beach combing with the kids at cottesloe.
15cm long looked like a hairy fat maggot, it was still alive so I chucked it back in
I told the kids it was a sea hare but google images has proved me otherwise, anyone have an idea what it could be?
I've seen sea slugs before and it did not look like one of them.

Thanks agnak , I googled sea mouse and that is definitely what it was.

Could be a case of the fussy shark eating habit.
Eat all the best pieces and spit over that unpalatable 15 cm leftover.
