How… adorrible.
Oh my gosh he’s just so cute! This is why we need Gene editing. Screw long life and super intelligence, I want spider turtle!!!
This is too far. It’s just plain heathenistic.
Everybody’s worried about sharks or drop bears or pit bulls… Spider turtle related concussions would be through the roof.
We’d have to wear hard hats in the forest. They’d be dropping out of trees, bonking us on the heads like coconuts.
You’d be trying to go to sleep, but your back hurts, like there’s a knot in it. Nope, you’re lying on top of a spider turtle. It’s shell has been giving you back problems for weeks!!
Imagine… just imagine finding one in the toilet at 2 am. You’d feel way too guilty to pee on it & you’d have to use the other bathroom.
You see cute. I see cold floors & a long, lonely distance with a full bladder… terrifying.
🤣🤣🤣
I think you just came up with a fantastic writing prompt for a short story!
If anything develops into a screenplay, I want an EP credit 😉
Yea this is going into my next dnd campaign
HP Lovecraft would be proud!
Gonna make this the animal companion for my Drowid.
It’s the next evolutionary step, obviously.
No. The next step are wings. Imagine flying spiders. 😍
1 unkillable flying turtle spider for you
Evolution, baby! 😁
Deploying automated persistent AI-directed free electron laser botswarms now
It can only be defeated by the crab-turtle-spider - the final step in evolution!
o no he looks so sad he has got low self esteem
*low shellf esteem.
We’ve got these already, called a coconut crab, and it’s not unlikely that they killed and ate Amelia Earheart.
I think I found my new favorite starter Pokémon.
This is just a (very cute) crab with not many extra steps.
Carcinization is an example of a phenomenon called convergent evolution, which is when different groups independently evolve the same traits. It’s the same reason both bats and birds have wings.
And there are soooo many of those that ends up in crabs that some evolution cientists joke that we all will end up in the perfect shape.
A crab shape
We are all but mere stepping stones of our species glorious path of evolving into crabs.
Oh no. No, we do not need an armored spider
It will have a mana bar next.
This creature’s existence is what brings about the creation of hand-held linear particle accelerators (HLPAs), and the nature of warfare is forever changed.
OMG I WANT IT.
