Constructive criticism: You might consider employing a bit of buffer space on the bottom of some of the presented images. As is, the CC subtitles cover some of the discussed image text. I"m not even a student and I enjoyed this non-debunk content. Cheers!

Bruh youre always helping so many people! Thanks for sharing your knowledge ❤

[@jonmartinson6830]

In my experience most people are delighted if you can point out a chiton at low tide and explain what they are, despite their diversity they seem to be quite obscure.

[@EleneDB]

This guy is amazing,thank you sooooo much!!! Where do you learn this lesser known information????????

[@Linguae_Music]

[@rocknrollmanic]

As someone who has handled a Gumboot. They feel more like a heavy old leather boot than a meatloaf

[@anthonyweston4813]

Thanks!

[@fabianofilipet7110]

Monoplacophorans are the basal mollusk, and their modifications generated every other class of mollusks.

Teeth that are reinforced with the iron containing magnetite?! These chiton really are a head of their time!

Gumboot chitons are my favorite tidepool critter

Walking meatloaf! And here was me thinking that was what happens when I butcher a hamburger dish that ends up being fed to my dog.

Bro……this is real.

[@bigoptions]

Kind of a scientific jack of all trades. You should stick to teaching children. Way to overconfident !

[@ProfessorDaveExplains]

Um, all of my content is for high school and undergraduate level, so none of it has ever been "for children", and I don't know what "confidence" has to do with anything. This is a very dumb comment.
