Hi

I was looking up some information on the Nautilus and found this site:

http://nationalzoo.si.edu/Publications/ZooGoer/2000/6/nautilusshellgame.cfm


Which stated this:

Today, six species of nautilus—including one with a layer of fur lining the bottom of its shell—survive in pockets of tropical waters in the western Pacific and Indian oceans.

is this true, I never heard of a fur lining in a shell.

Thanks TONI
