What is, respectively,the best horrible animal design
every living thing on earth is in a neverending game of Chicken with natural selection, staying juuuuust enough ahead of the curve to avoid extinction. this minimum-effort strategy breeds a LOT of weird-but-fairly-effective designs, but the Pipefish is objectively just pretty terrible.
theyβre basically just straightened-out seahorses that get the worst of both worlds, lacking the seahorseβs strong grabbing ability while also being such a weak swimmer that they canβt deal with any kind of current at all!Β
they SUCK, is what Iβm getting at here.
but you know what? theyβre also POSTIVELY DELIGHTFUL.
pipefish come in a frankly astonishing array of colors, shapes, and sizes, and I frankly would not want to live in a world without them.
