So that is what happens to sailors when they are buried at sea.

I wonder what those isopods taste like, inasmuch as they are distantly related to shrimp and lobster.
(* VERY distantly. They are far closer related to pillbugs, and no closer to shrimp than a cow is to a fish.)

Nature’s way of recycling
To: Reily
Actually, I think the closest living relative to a trilobite is probably a horseshoe crab. They are placed with arachnids (spiders, etc.), but I think that being more basal (ancient), they are more similar to other basal organisms than more highly evolved arachnids.

Yeah I think you’re right.
Trilobites are among my favorite fossils!
Always loved finding them and collecting them.
They’re so varied!

They do actually taste like crab/shrimp/lobster. Watched them eaten on youtube and described that way.

They look like large lobster tails.

Isn’t the cockroach also related to lobster?

Just like the potato bugs that you find under a rock in your garden.
To: V_TWIN
Not as closely.
And the roach is loaded with organs, whereas these pill bugs are loaded with meat, like a shrimp’s or lobster’s tails.

“I wonder what those isopods taste like”
About a week ago, I was watching a food show.
They had a tank of isopods on sale at some seafood place and the chef bought a couple for a few hundred dollars each.
They prepared them like they were lobsters.
Then ate them. They said they didn’t have much flavor at all.
