Marine biologists have discovered a crustacean in the South Pacific that resembles a lobster or crab covered in what looks like silky fur.
The “Yeti Crab”, as it has been dubbed, is white and 15cm (5.9in) long, according to Michel Segonzac of the French Research Institute for Exploitation of the Sea (Ifremer).
In what he has described as a “surprising characteristic”, the animal’s pincers are covered with sinuous, hair-like strands. It seems to reside around some Pacific deep sea hydrothermal vents, which spew out fluids that are toxic to many animals.
A little melted butter and garlic can make almost anything taste just fine.
It looks like something you need ointment to get rid of………
John, I recently started using Firefox. First thing I noticed was a tiny photo of your head leading off the url address (IE didn’t have your mug). Anyway, I imagined you head photoshopped on a fly. Can you do this with some witty headline? Thanks for being a good sport.
I wouldn’t care to eat anything that eats hydrogen sulfide…
Actually, Chris, if you eat enough of certain foods — you become a producer of hydrogen sulfide.
damn I wanna bread that thing and deep-fry it… mmm fuzzy critter poboys!!
I’ll have mine with extra mayo!
Sounds delicious, but if it needs to be drenched in butter and garlic then no thank-you. I’m on a low fat diet and garlic gives me bad gas.
These I would never like to find in a blond person’s crotch 😉
