麒麟魚交配
在海水的世界裡,可愛的拳擊蟹,左右揮舞著蟹鉗上的兩球海葵,利用海葵的毒液驅趕天敵;在覓食時,也透過海葵蒐集地上的碎食。但實際上,拳擊蟹卻是個惡老闆:根據研究顯示,大部分的食物都進了拳擊蟹的嘴裡,只有極少的食物碎屑能被海葵利用。拳擊蟹透過這樣的方式,限制了海葵的體型和生長,以便使海葵的體積適合拳擊蟹使用。
In the sea, a cute boxer crab swings two anemones left and right in its claws, as the venom from these anemones keeps away its natural enemies. When foraging, it uses anemones to collect food fragments. In reality, the boxer crab is an evil employer. According to research, most of the food goes to the boxer crab, with only a small amount to the anemones. In this way, the boxer crab limits the growth and size of anemones, so that they can continue to be held and utilized.
