HORSESHOE CRAB

[wanderingokali]

The Kadez is a medium-sized river chelicerate, living in particularly pure, well-oxygenated streams. It tolerates very cold temperatures and as such is often found in mountain streams. They turn over pebbles with their legs in search of small invertebrates, roe, and other small prey to eat. It is quite an active creature, and in areas where they are abundant, they'll often come up onto land for other food sources. That said, they are quite skittish, and surprisingly fast -especially underwater-, so it isn't always easy to approach them.

selkie reader and their sailor husbands have a lovely beach day,, 😌💕💕✨✨💕💕✨✨✨💕💕💕✨

(Could also be considered the “Omg this beach has free babies!!!” comic and/or “Moon thought he was a father for 0.2 seconds and damn near had a stroke about it” comic)

would data like isopods or would he be a horseshoe crab guy

aw dang you're just gonna pit them against each other like that?

i do not think data would be able to play favorites with them if he tried. instead, he would create a wonderfully informational speech about both creatures, and it would last many hours and everyone on the ship will be very annoyed with it, but we should absolutely all hear him out on what he has to say because it is all very important.

Girlhood is constantly thinking about speech and debate competitions and writing speeches for legislation you can’t even debate and memorizing said speeches for practice and watching the congressional debate finals for the past year every chance you get and quite literally LIVING Congressional Debate and yet,,, every competition,,,, you place INCREDIBLY LOW

Webfishing OC! She doesn't have a name but she smells bad and loves horseshoe crabs

Behold

The perfect creature

‘I do not have a favorite animal,’ I think to myself. ‘All animals are unique in their own way.’

And then a picture of a horseshoe crab enters my dash…

[feralfennecfox]

One of the horseshoe crabs I work with keeps coming up to me whenever I’m working in the touchpool because he seems to want me to scritch him

So I guess I’ve bonded with a horseshoe crab, and I could not be happier about it
