Little under-appreciated sea creature things:
By now I’ve met multiple people in my life who were unaware of any or all of the following and were delighted to learn them, so here is the master collection.
Scallops swim like they do in Spongebob
Scallops also have a bunch of googly eyes
Other mussels really do have big “tongues,” actually their “feet,” like on a snail or slug, which are basically their cousins
Every barnacle is an entire stationary crustacean, like a lobster or crab, and those are their legs
A sperm whale has a thin narrow little mouth and its lower jaw is basically a stick
Sea urchins walk around
Under the sea urchin is this mouth
Sand dollars are a type of sea urchin themselves and they just look like that
All sea anemones are meat eaters and mostly eat things about their own size
A starfish has a little eye on the end of each arm
Not only do octopuses have beaks but the bite of almost every octopus species is venomous, just in case shape-shifting, color changing, tentacles, suckers, ink and super intelligence weren’t enough super powers
plz comment with any you would like to add and also whether any were new or shocking to you
