the ocean is creepy
>>
I really don't get it. Is the existence of this animal meant to tell us something?

a rare 1 in a trillion exception to the rule of evolution? can a species retardmaxx its specs so hard it can exist completely defenseless to the world around it?
>>
>>5074578
It's a mirror to the human race
>>
>>5074350
is it because the seal is brown and aggressive without provocation?
>>
>>5074578
Yes. Being a big morsel of tasty meat is a considerable disadvantage in nature. Developing rancid flesh to ward off predators is a perfectly viable defence mechanism, I just doesn't guarantee that predators won't attack you by accident.
>>
>>5074578
They produce the most eggs of any vertebrate, up to 300 million
>>
>>5074578
I mean slugs are also slow as shit, there is a reason all of them don't get eaten
>>
>>5074697
all the sticky shit, and most of them tastes bad
>>
>>5074350
That's the most hilariously retarded expression I've ever seen in an animal.
>>
>>5074707
Tell that to the french, heh heh. Amirite fellas?

>Is the existence of this animal meant to tell us something?
nothing has meaning

>>5074657
I dont think the 20+ feet carnivore greenland shark needs to worry that much about warding off predators, anon.

any cool sunfish facts?
>>
>>5075029
They’re related to pufferfish
>>
>>5074578
What exception? It's been working fine, so confirming the rule.
>>
>>5074861
chaos infused?
>>
>>5075025
>>5074660
Do they taste good? This seems like untapped potential, imagine if they had low infant mortality.
>>
>>5075208
No, not at all, their entire survival strategy revolves around their muscles being really sinewy and hard to get, AND being nasty and poisonous. The example in the op is extremely rare. Also the sunfish in the OP is still alive.
