Who're you calling squat?? 

Squat lobsters like this one spend most of their lives on the sea floor, though juveniles will swarm throughout the water column to feed on plankton. Although we call them lobsters, they are actually more closely related to hermit crabs.

Animals that look like salmon sushi. The one on top is an isopod in Japan, more about it here. The one on the bottom is a mystery larva in Arizona.
