it’s crazy how much diversity there can be in one species…these are all pictures of the same bird species (red-tailed hawk)

Mr Creatures, what is the most shaped creature of them all?
Oh but there are so many of them ;_;
Off the top of my head
These starfishes / sea stars from the Ortus Sanitatis
This fish from Albertus Magnus
This grumpy dragon from Scheuchzer
This turtle from Thomas de Cantimpré
These sponges from Olaus Magnus
Elephants are usually pretty good
But my personal favorite is this crab
Yellow humpback fly, Psilodera valid, Acroceridae (small-headed flies)
Found in South Africa

The larvae of these flies are spiny, hairy maggots that can run (using an inchworm style motion) and jump and all on their own they hunt down spiders, then enter the spider through a leg joint and live parasitically in their organs for sometimes years, depending on the spider’s lifespan
How do they get out? 😨
They chew their way out after they finally kill the host, and then they pupate outside the spider’s body, but that’s usually near almost the end of the spider’s lifespan! And many of the host species live from five to ten years, sometimes synchronized, which means those species of small head flies only emerge as adults once every decade, too! Others come out every year, depending on the spider they use.
Also when the larva first finds a spider, it avoids being noticed by only moving when the spider does. So it will sit there on the spider’s leg for hours, inch up the leg every time the spider does anything and then stop again.
