It’s not really. It’s closest relative is your common garden roly-poly pill bug............. Yuck.
They taste like ammonia.

I believe it is an actual photo but is the subject of the photo real? I sometimes take real photos of fake stuff.

They would stink very quickly...........Unlike the Roly-Poly which is a land based crustacean and can breathe air in its gills, these giant ones can’t...........
