Sometimes called Volcano Snails, or even the Sea Pangolin, the Scaly-Foot Snail lives at deep-sea hydrothermal vents, wears iron-reinforced scales, and survives by hosting bacteria inside its body that turn toxic chemicals into food. 💅 Also, unfortunately, the same metal-rich vents that make this snail possible are now being considered for deep-sea mining, which would destroy both the snails and the entire ecosystem along. Nature is incredible. Humans are…complicated. ✨ #wildlife #biology #anim
