It’s false though. The mantis shrimp would easily destroy a crab with 1 punch

Can you think of the evolutionary pressures it went through to develop it’s eyes, colors, and .22 round punch?
I shudder to think what it’s ancestors faced.
Like the BOBBIT WORM

But is the mantis shrimp just a one trick pony? What’s the breakdown on general feasibility versus specialization? Or is the mantis shrimp truly the secret weapon that crabs wish they were?
TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
crabs may be better in nearly every aspect, but have you considered that crabs don’t see 16 primary colors
NegativeInf@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Something something banana organ.
Idk. I’m not an alien.

Broke: carcinisation is evidence that crab bodies are peak performance
Woke: carcinisation is evidence that crab bodies are a noob trap, because no crabs are top tier predators despite being so widespread

That’s why I use Rust.

And it’s the ideal female body too.

Crab people, crab people
Walk like crab

I mean your hands have teeth who could beat that
HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
According to Jordan Peterson anyway.

Cool meme but the nerd in me needs to point out that carcinisation is seen in non-crab crustaceans, not all animals in general
peopleproblems@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Not yet.
We might see marine animals trend towards dolphins, but given enough time, does a dolphin become a crab, or does a crab become a dolphin?
nifty@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Cute comment, but the nerd in me needs you to provide a sauce for making a statement like that. You can’t extrapolate evolution like that, brah
TTimo@lemm.ee 2 weeks ago
That one’s cooked though?
misterdoctor@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I know but it was funnier than the uncooked ones I tried

Not only perfomance, but also safety
Thteven@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
We must evolve to crab if we want to survive

Why is carcinization suddenly being referenced so much?

It’s time. Get in the soup

Am I a joke to you?

Honestly I’d like to see some evolutionary biologists who are way too invested actually have that argument. Because yeah, yours has remained the same for pretty much the longest of all species…but OP’s keeps repeatedly evolving
Cypher@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I nominate sharks, which evolved over 400 million years ago, before trees existed.

Clearly a crab who has manned its battle station
