If crabs came from animals, why are there still animals?
Nature: “Give it time.”
note to self: don’t evolve into a crab
Crab people, crab people.
Taste like crab, talk like people.
It’s the same reason both bats and birds have wings.
This article is trash. It’s been established for a long time that bats have wings to frighten criminals.
the tasty king crab that’s coveted as a seafood delicacy, aren’t even technically “true crabs.”
I’m not ready for this today.
Man, you’re not going to like the technicalities of what is and isn’t a penguin…
They wear tuxedos… right?
Right?
King crab is technically imitation crab meat.
I would call it mislabeled, since it’s called crab but wasn’t made to imitate crab.
convergent evolution is such a head scratcher, nature is full of puzzles, like how humans became to dominate this world, yet a human allegedly wrote the title of this post
Tittle*
*Titties
TIL why do words keep evolving into titties?
Because everyone likes titties
World cold and hard. Titty warm and soft.
This guy boobs
They keep evolving into pigs too.
Peccary:
Tapir:
Capybara:
Thanks, I knew there was at least one more. I feel like there’s something else I’m not thinking of as well but I can’t place it.
I feel like there’s something else
yes, pigs
IANAS, but it sure seems like most of these pig fuckers just went fully off-road genetically as soon as their two main external sphincters formed during mitosis, and focused everything else afterward on that core concept: Eat & Shit. (punctuation optional; creative emphasis, arrangement, spelling, etc. promoted)
Into two pigs? How often?
Twice
The semantics of this title makes my brain itch
I like that it kinda implies that animals are spontaneously becoming crab often enough to be a problem.
I mean, when you start categorizing things by phylogenetics instead of phenetics, you realize that certain body plans happen a lot more than expected.
Drill a small hole and you can scratch it
Ok, when we’re at 100 comments about the ti
ttle, I will finally edit itTitillating
lol throw a colon after TIL and it’s good enough.
lol throw a colon
I did, and now I’m no longer licensed to perform surgery!
sound like a plan
The title , yo
Still hurts
Be careful what you ask for on Lemmy… :-P
This title hurt me physically.
I’ve also heard kangaroos are further evolved, or more distinctly evolved, from our common ancestor than us.
No claws yet though. Having a biological pocket is cool.
Ahem. 🫣
I want to be one of those crabs that form a conga line and swap shells.
That’ll be the hermit, ironically.
