The local name for the critters in the upper picture is "Gumboots". I don't know their real name but they are related to slugs and snails but have a segmented armoured shell covering their body. On the underside is a large suction pad. These I have eaten (you eat the pad) they are tough but tasty when cooked.
All three of these are really nice photos and the education factor ain't bad either! Great color on the "echinoderms".
ReplyDeleteI don't know that I would want to eat a sea slug though, I think I'd have to be REALLY hungry!
