Do you want to eat prawns?

We have eco friendly shrimp.

Those are all shrimp.

They looked and tasted like shrimps, but I can assure you those were not real shrimps.

But we can never have any eco friendly all you can eat shrimp buffet.

So, mantis shrimp come in two varieties there are spearers and smashers.

So this is the true cost of a shrimp dinner, maybe seven or eight shrimp and 10 pounds of other animals that had to die in the process.

And this just drags over the bottom, in this case to catch shrimp.

This photograph I made of the fisherman holding the shrimp that he caught after towing his nets for one hour.

That's a mussel you can find in the waters out here, and the threads holding it to a rock are timed at exactly two years, they begin to dissolve.

Like those big explosions, sparks, are from a little comb jelly, and there's krill and other kinds of crustaceans, and jellyfish.

And then we did a series of calculations, and what we were able to show is that these mantis shrimp have to have a spring.

And what these shrimp are trying to do is actually harvest the bacteria from the backs of these animals.

So he had a handful of shrimp, maybe seven or eight shrimp, and all those other animals on the deck of the boat are bycatch.

Acaraje, a Brazilian food from Africa, is a ball of caupi bean dough, onions, and salt, fried in palm oil and served with shrimp and a spicy sauce.

I was interested in what was going on in the bag, the bag on the toy store shelf where those shrimp sat in suspended animation indefinitely.

I bite into an egg roll filled with shrimp, cilantro and cream cheese, a Chinese, Mexican, and American combo found along this little part of the border.

This was a small net that was being used in Mexico to catch shrimp, but the way it works is essentially the same everywhere in the world.

You just open the bag, and you just dump them into the plastic aquarium, and in about a week or so, you'll have little shrimps swimming around.

And if any of you ever have a chance, backstage of the National Museum of Natural History is one of the world's best collections of preserved mantis shrimp. And what this is serious business for me.

The next thing that happens is the light ends evaporate, and some of the toxic things float into the water column and kill fish eggs and smaller fish and things like that, and shrimp.

So I asked the Minister over dinner, I said, Would you consider a situation where you would still get paid we do the math and figure out what the value of the resource is but you leave fish and the sharks and the shrimp in the water?

And mantis shrimp are called mantis shrimp after the praying mantises, which also have a fast feeding appendage. And I started to think, well, maybe it will be interesting, while listening to their sounds, to figure out how these animals generate very fast feeding strikes.
