    Huh, til terrestrial shrimp exists. Would’ve thought it will be categorised as something entirely different.

      I’m more tickled by the fact that “The Cyclops Mountains” are a real place and not just part of a D&D campaign run by a DM who’s bad at names 😆

              Conversely, “Himmelbjerget” (translation: Sky Mountain) does not reach the sky and is in fact a 147m (482 ft) tall hill.

                What does the top touch if not sky? I would say that all mountains above sea level technically touch the sky

                  Either a gift shop or a touristy restaurant. Haven’t been there in a long time, so I’m a bit hazy on the details.

                  all mountains above sea level technically touch the sky

                  Well it’s just a hill, not a mountain, and there’s buildings on top of it, so double no lol

        Well, not really. One are insects the other crustaceans. Woodlice would probably be a better comparison?

          Both are artropodes, crustaceans and insects are no so different either, mainly due to the adaption of the environment. Molusks and snails are another similar group, both are in our recipes since long time ago.
