📖 Read about me
The giant isopod is a deep-sea relative of the pill bug that grows to cat size. It scavenges carcasses that fall to the seabed, can gorge on a single huge meal (like a dead whale) and then survive years without eating — one famously refused food for over 5 years. It curls into an armored ball when threatened.
