WHOOPS, I MEANT 162!

"In order for it to defend itself[...]" This sentence is too long, and should be split up.
Did you mean "taken up hitchhiking on seashrog nests"?
Wow...it seems a lot of the latest organisms use Seashrog nests to massively expand their ranges. A chimpanzee-otter has created a localized Noah's Ark, apparently.

I'm not sure crossing the tropics on seashrog nests is all that likely given it's a polar species. The tropics are awfully warm.

I second Disgustedorite's observation. It would at least need some kind of noteworthy adaptation to endure crossing the tropics, even if it's somewhat protected within the nests. Wouldn't the inside of the floating nest still be hot and humid while crossing the tropics?

Not to mention the shrogs aren't exactly controlling where their nests go, so it could be stuck in the tropics for years.

I think I fixed up the biomes to being only in the Southern Hemisphere now!
