Hello! From Vernrot HarboUr. I am a scientist. Formerly stUdied troll mUtations. But. Now I stUdy marine biology! I love cephalopods!・・・𝛾
FUn fact! Lionfish may be venomoUs. BUt! They are also edible if prepared correctly. In regions where they are an invasive species, eating them is very mUch encoUraged! SUpposedly they taste qUite bUttery! A food I woUld like to try in the fUtUre. If yoU cannot eat the king of the jUngle. Then. Try the lion of the sea! Haha. ・・・𝛾
Hm! It has also been a while. Since I posted a fact! So. YoU might have heard the term "carcinisation" before. A form of convergent evolUtion in which non-crab crUstaceans evolve a crab-like body plan. This has occUrred at least five times! BecaUse of this. King crabs, porcelain crabs, hairy stone crabs, coconUt crabs, and the patagUrUs rex. Are all technically not "trUe crabs"! They are decapods independently evolved. And. Not part of the brachyUra infraorder. ・・・𝛾
I have been qUite engrossed in reading aboUt “Animal Crossing” recently. A strange game! I was told it was aboUt fishing. And. Terraforming an island. BUt. People seem more interested in selling tUrnips. And. HUnting for specific animals to live with them. They complain aboUt the octopi! Too. Apparently they are “not cUte”. I don’t Understand!・・・𝛾
Hermit crabs are very thoroUgh when they select a new shell to live in! It can be a lot of fUn watching them. They test for movability. A good textUre and external shape. A solid opening. EnoUgh room to fit inside and make qUick withdrawals if needed. And. They flip the shells over too! To make sUre they can be easily righted. Hermit crabs will also exchange shells with each other! Very cUte behavioUr. ・・・𝛾
