    Soooo, technical science question here, super high level, get ready for some Latin and Greek and $14 words:

    Does it’s little face flaps get all flippy flappy because it’s excited/hungry? foraging response? breathing? Those flaps were really flipping and I’m just curious

      How much flip could a flippy flappy flap if a flippy flappy could flappy flippy?

      If this video is anything to go by, quite a lot.

    That looks like a slow, pain filled, and horrible way to go.

      Iirc clams don’t even have a nervous system. They and bivalves are sometimes described as sea vegetables.

      That’s the entirety of sea life, I do believe.

    Without ever being taught, the crab identfied that it’s food, not a rock, investigates for an opening, then uses leverage to open the clam.

    Makes me wonder how much I actually think when it’s really just instinct.

    This is not entirely unlike how HUMANS eat bloody CRABS.

    This reminds me of the original time machine novel。 Every single crab on earth reminds me of the time machine novel.

      It’s been a long time since I read it.

      The part at the end of time where all that remains is a dying crab on a desolate beach?

      I don’t remember the details, but the feelings and emotions that end of time nothingness and death of all things left is still with me… It is sad and lonely and depressing and empty feeling. Same with thinking about the eventual “Heat Death of the Universe”.
