Back when I owned aquatic snails, I would occasionally see them propel themselves with their siphon hole. Since there were no predators it was just for fun. On the other hand, pteropod snails move by flapping their "fins" or wings more similarly to how a squid would.
If GLaDOS was interested in marine biology: ‘Aperture science… We generate thrust, because we can. For the good of all of us, collect the squids who are dead.’ She got real into sea life after Chell left…
Have always had a specific draw to squid. By far my favorite critters in this huge diverse world and always have been. Would love to see an in depth dive on them. You break down things so well and have such an understandable voice!!
I'm taking a zoology class in high school rn, and I am obsessed with your videos. I want to study animals/nature when I am an adult, and your videos are helping to fule that drive! Thanks!
As our favourite skull guy, I was wondering if you could bring your expertise to thylacosmilus? The lack of incisors, triangular canines and interesting premolars lead to some interesting speculation on its diet, and I would looovveee your take on it!
The April Fool's Day trick here is that he charmed all of us into learning something in an entertaining and interesting way. Seriously though, this channel is so fricken cool. Makes me so nostalgic for my days in mammalogy lab.
