Mugshot monday(+ weekend round-up)

- Was that purchased in a waffle house in a fly over state? Yep! Do I need to visit another waffle house? Probably not, but it was a fun trip.

- the forklift actually happened late Friday, and it wasn't the only time he got it stuck that day. He sunk it the first time damn near to the deck, but hey, when you're a 22 y.o. dude, not much is your fault.

- Weekend was spent doing laundry, doing homework, going to Costco, coing to Carters, doing dishes... and not getting any me time.

- Tell me you are in a cult without telling me you are in a cult: I actually did the math before thinking about buying that quantity of scrub daddies. #noGeoffputthemback

- And not to be outdone by last Monday, an employee that I had to write up last week had a major medical incident at work today and is fighting for his life tonight. No, not workplace related but sitting with someone while they are exhibiting stroke like symptoms and seeing the fear in his eyes but trying to keep him comfortable and sitting...fucking sucks. Not my first rodeo, at all, but on this end it's not fun. I also learned: my boss is also cool hand Luke and EMT trained. So we have that going for us...

- on the upside, because I don't want to end up that way and because I want to get even smaller, I picked up my key for the gym today. Here's to getting out some frustrations!!!

Have a good week yall- today was dump day, and my fleet can haul on Thursday. 2 days of making sure my new software works, 1 day of teaching my crew how to use it, then we get it done. Wish me luck!!!

Much love!

[So, basically, we're doing a Connecticut-style lobster roll, but we're mixing in some Dungeness crab and sometimes life begins when the marriage ends]

New reel up on Instagram of the rest of my DDI spread. Not sure yet which ND spread I'll do next after this one, but I'm thinking of maybe making at least a standalone illustration to go with it, maybe of Caddy.

Which Nancy Drew game would you like to see a spread of next?

Instagram is wolfin.sheeps.clothing

INCREDIBLE new footage from John Sanders at Redondo!!!

Here's why:

The question is up in the air as to whether the bluntnose sixgill shark (Hexanchus griseus) is a primarily a predator or scavenger. The answer is likely both when looking at other predators in its niche, but this footage is another key to confirming the hypothesis that they are primarily scavengers.

In the past, H. griseus has been recorded ingesting crabs and spitting them out at a bait station specifically for the crabs. This was interesting to me because crustaceans supposedly make up a decent portion of their diet. Why wouldn't the observed shark eat the crabs even if it couldn't get the fish meat inside the trap?

A more recent study, which I also wrote about, found tissues from a young dolphin in the stomach of an H. griseus from the western Mediterranean Sea. These are not fast sharks. There were not brittle stars or other scavenging organisms in the stomach, suggesting that the shark got to the dolphin before the others, if it was scavenged and not predated. Among other little details that I go into further detail in that post.

To the point: In this video, we see three H. griseus at a bait station crowded with pacific spiny dogfish (Squalus suckleyi) and red rock crabs (Cancer productus). There was one Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister) and one flatfish that may be a rock sole (Lepidopsetta bilineata) or an English sole (Parophrys vetulus). All gathered to feed on the salmon meat placed by the divers. Repeatedly in the footage, we see the H. griseus ingest crabs and spit them out alive.

Why? Well, it appears that they are only interested in the salmon flesh and may have been trying to steal the morsels that the crabs were pinching away at. In one instance, an H. griseus goes for a whole gathering of crabs. Doesn't eat a single one. Now, to draw any conclusion from this would require a lot of assumptions. I assume that these crabs had salmon meat in their claws and I assume that the sharks got the flesh before spitting the crabs out. That need not be the case to still support my hypothesis that these sharks are primarily scavengers.

These sharks had multiple opportunities to eat any number of the other visitors to the feast. In one moment, an S. suckleyi was right at the rostrum of one of the H. griseus and the latter didn't even try to eat the former. This could be because S. suckleyi has venomous spines; perhaps it is learned or instinctual not to try and eat them. But then there's the C. productus. Other that having a slippery carapace, there is little the crab could do that would prove fatal if eaten live. And then there's the flatfish, which has no natural defenses or hazards.

All of this points to scavenger behavior.

I am blown away by this footage (and extremely envious of this diver). Even though my ROV is OOC, I still get observe these sharks in one way or another.

Lately...

- the process to go from #1 to #2 often involves more swearing than it did to bring it out of the ocean. And if you are eating it, just know we appreciate it. But also: being a manager has made me realize how screwed up our immigration system is, and how our country needs more people like we have here.

- Hummingbirds. Our resident demanding crackheads, for whom we are their grateful drug dealers.

- And this kid... I just can't with how cute he is, not gonna lie. Plus, he's nice. #justlikemom

- And look at all the pretty colours on our forecast. Yeah, if my boss didn't need to go to Oregon tomorrow, I'd stay home.

Much love yall, and stay safe and warm.
