Pat Clyne took this video of a crab riding atop a jellyfish! To be exact, the jellyfish is a Drymonema dalmatinum, or pink meanie. The species is native to more southern locations, and has only been recently reported in the Gulf of Mexico. Link -Thanks, Jackie!

    That was adorable. Its like ocean alternative transportation. Wonder how he got on in the first place… Of course it reminds me of Finding Nemo.

    I was snorkeling in the Caribbean a long time ago and a crab hitchhiked on my back! The crab was really quiet about it … I didn’t even feel a thing :)

    The close-up of the jellyfish tentacles freaked me out, but the parts before and after was cute.

    Seriously, crabs and jellyfish are not cute. Not together or apart. All this cute talk means there was clearly a slow day on cute overload or something.
