Mantis Shrimp
Don’t let their cute eyes fool you! The peacock mantis #shrimp has one of the most powerful punches in the animal kingdom. Its club-like appendages can strike with the speed of a bullet, reaching up to 23 metres per second (about 50 miles per hour). This punch is so forceful that it can break through the shells of #crabs, #clams, and even aquarium glass. The speed of the strike also creates cavitation bubbles, which produce a second impact when they collapse, effectively doubling the mantis shrimp's punch power. ~~~~ #ScubaDiving #Liveaboard #DiveTrips #liveaboardlife #MarineBiodiversity #seacritters #UWPMacro
