Alright, since I made a starfish dump a while ago and don't feel like reposting the crown of thorns, I'll bring back this fellow here.

Harlequin shrimps feeds exclusively on starfish, often taking down ones several times larger than them. Once a starfish is located by its smell, the shrimp injects a toxin into it with its front legs, paralyzing the echinoderm. It then turns the starfish upside down and begins feasting on its tube-feet underneath, while the starfish is still alive. They consume the starfish in its entirety, but that may take perhaps a week, and apparently preferring fresh food, some even feed the captive starfish so it doesn't die while the shrimp pair (for those often work as husband and wife) rips off its arms one by one and eats them. The pair is loyal to each other, the animals demonstrate monogamy and egg care.

If I had a yandere serial murderer wife I'd totally imitate a harlequin shrimp pair, paralyzing people and eating them part by part while keeping them alive.

It's creatures like this that make me realize that real life creatures are so much freakier than monsters in anime and manga.
