With Linden's help, I designed the S.O.R. with bright colours that help signal other animals for danger! The eyes have dots around them that help scan other animals, it has a bag inside its belly to collect the trash and is a really good swimmer!

I decided to draw a few crabs as the invasive species, they will be eating the sea weeds and disturbing other fish, so the S.O.R. will drive them away and restore balance!
