The Piggies of the Deep

This hilarious-looking animal is the globose sea pig (Scotoplanes globosus), and I’m seriously obsessed with them. From the time I saw my first sea pig, I was like “AWWWWWW!”

Look at them! They’re so adorable! I love them. I think they’re very chibi. (Well, maybe not that chibi.) Not only that, but…

THEY ROLL IN THE MUD.

OH. MY. YES. THESE. ARE. #awesome

(Hashtags again…ugh.)

They sift through the mud—which is actually ooze made up of dead sea angels and other planktonic organisms—and EAT EDIBLE STUFF!

Last thing: Watch this video and you’ll REALLY like sea piggiez :3

Admit it. You love them :3
