"This Crustacean Punches HOTTER THAN THE SUN... And We’re Obsessed."

0 View8 hours ago

Not a shrimp. ✅ Bullet fists. 💥 This 400-million-year-old chaos-goblin laughs at physics.With its vibrant colors and menacing claws, it’s a marvel of evolution. Meet the Mantis Shrimp A creature that defies expectations.: 1. Powerful Punch: Mantis shrimp deliver one of the fastest strikes in the animal kingdom, accelerating their clubs at speeds comparable to a bullet (up to 23 m/s), capable of breaking glass and shells. 2. Cavitation Bombs: Their punches create cavitation bubbles that collapse with a shockwave, producing light (sonoluminescence) and heat (4,700°C, briefly hotter than the sun's surface). 3. Color Vision Nuance: Despite 16 photoreceptors, they may not discern more colors than humans; their brain processes color differently, prioritizing speed over hue discrimination. 4. Taxonomic Distinction: They belong to the order Stomatopoda, not true shrimp, and diverged evolutionarily ~400 million years ago. Their lineage is ancient and fascinating. 5. Culinary Use: Consumed in Asian cuisines (for example, "shako" in sushi), but their tough exoskeleton makes preparation challenging. Their meat is considered a delicacy. Warning - Aquarium Risks: Their powerful strikes can crack aquarium glass, making them challenging pets.Handle with care! “Still want one as a pet? 🦐💥 COMMENT BELOW 👇 Share your thoughts! “ #Science #Oceanlovers #MarineBiology #DBrainFuel https://www.tiktok.com/@dbrainfuel https://www.instagram.com/dbrainfuel/ https://www.youtube.com/@d-brainfuel https://www.facebook.com/people/D-Brain-Fuel/61574529035003/
