It is taking all my restraint not to post this entire comic. But I want you to visit The Oatmeal and experience all its riches, so: Why The Mantis Shrimp Is My New Favorite Animal.

And if you would like to know even MORE about these miraculous creatures, we have a Radiolab episode for you, complete with a Mantis Shrimp choir.

Built temporarily in Milan for the Sixth Triennial 1936, and in 1962 was finally rebuilt permanently in Camerlata through the efforts of the Cattaneo family.
