Seagulls on the acid ocean

Posted by Aaron Schmidt (Auckland, New Zealand) on 24 February 2006 in Animal & Insect.

The warm water puts them to sleep and then the spiders come up from the deep, to crawl around and eat the sweet meat of the seagull. It's all quite horrific. (Picture taking in the Champagne Pool of Waiotapu.)
