The Attenborough vid don't work here either, it's 'private'

I don't support the academization of my music. It usually means the genre is going stagnant.

Where most molluscs will produce a shell comprised of a calcium-carbonate matrix, Crysomallon squamiferum incorporates iron sulfide into both its shell and opperculum (the scale on a snail’s foot).

...these species are radiotrophic. They eat radiation.

The first species discovered that possessed this trait was Cladosporium cladosporioides. It is not a new species. C. cladosporioides is a known plant pathogen, although only this recently discovered strain is known to exhibit radiotrophism outside the laboratory. So where was this new strain found?

The remains of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant.

Iron Snail, and a fungus that eats fucking radiation.



Snail is made out of goddamn iron.
