Tiger, tiger burning bright

Tiger shrimp

Before I leave the Fred Telonicher Marine Laboratory, I’ll introduce you to a living tiger shrimp. It’s front and center in the shot above, brown and shiny, almost camouflaged. But it proudly stands there almost waiting for its portrait to be taken. In the background are some gorgeous strawberry anemones.

I eat cooked shrimp in virtually every shape and form. Looking this cute little guy in the eye hasn’t exactly changed my appetite but, gee…doesn’t he seem to have personality?

  1. You have my permission and blessing to eat as much shrimp as you want, even if they are cute little swimmers!!

  2. This sea creature, in this photo, looks more like a bird in a garden! I’ve decided I’m not going to eat it.

    BTW, were y’all makin’ fun of our culture down this away? You ain’t never seen a gorilla on a jeep before? Sheesh! Thet thar is what we call high style.
