He is the one.
Without flaw unless it gets flipped on its back.
Ain't a problem in the ocean
So perfect that the poor things are doomed to have their blood harvested
We are their vampires.
The beauty of evolution. If it works, it works. Whatever they have been doing for so long is working.
Furthermore it's beautiful that the evolutionary pressure hasn't changed. That there hasn't been a benefit from any of the genetic mutations. That the evolutionary pressure still applies to this day to ensure conformance with the perfect archetype.
Just because your general body shape did not change does not mean you did not evolve.
Point: facts
Counterpoint: memes
😁🫠
I'm with Team Meme on this one.
This may seem like it's just meant to be funny, but evolution without changes in genes is literally the origin of the word "meme".
Memetic evolution (as opposed to genetic evolution) happens through passing information from generation to generation, so having the counterpoint just be "memes" is unbelievably accurate!
Nerd.
I enjoy the information. I still have to call you out.
I'm proud to have been called a nerd
-Motivational quotes
Yup, things like temperature, humidity, and atmospheric makeup can change quite a bit depending on geological periods.
There’s a bit of an evolutionary necessity to adapt on those timescales.
They have evolved, just the body hasn't changed.
So did they grow as a person then?
I've seen the evolution of the one to the right. It now has a USB connection on the tail.
We talking USB-C, though?
At least they don't pay taxes.
Did you talk to one?
And now they will miss out on becoming crab, those poor fools.
You fool!
Crawls sideways
We was crab all along!
Also a true hero for our species, they deserve statues.
The perfect boyfriend doesn't exi-
Apart this Horseshoe crabs are not crabs it's a own species, nearest related to spiders and scorpions. They are raised since 1970 on sea farms as blood donors, which are taken a little out before freeing the animal again. Their blood (blue) is unique, because it contains a compound that detects the slightest bacterial contamination in medications and vaccines.
It's important in medicine and Pharma industry, which also as collateral effect had avoided the extiction of this animal, which before was in a real risk.
That's a lot of blood
The content of a bottle is from a lot of animals. There is not much blood from each animal, 20% blood is extracted and then the animal marked and released again until they recover. They are too valuable to kill them in this process. There are videos about this.
Sadly the survival rate post bleeding is... not great.
Well, if because of the greed of the company they exceeds the max 20% of the blood, need to be controlled by law, in an liquid more expensive than Gold.
I wouldn't be surprised if they find these guys on Mars soon
After the perfection only can exist decay, without errors, evolution can't exist.
