Sea Snails Munching on Blue Bottles and Jellyfishes, South Africa

What the hell is this animal at the beautiful Indian Ocean beach down at Plettenberg Bay, South Africa? Read what other fascinating animals you can meet in South Africa: https://ntripping.com/south-african-animals/ It’s strange, ...it moves in a weird way, ...and it leaves fascinating trails. It’s also a scavenger who scents decaying animals from a large distance and feeds in packs. This is -Bullia digitalis-, a *sea snail* species. At first, it looked like they were having sex on the beach, not the cocktail but the activity. But then we realised there was food involved in the orgy. The sea snails suck the soft tissue of the jellyfishes or blue bottles which are washed by the tide. In an hour or so they were able to devour a huge jellyfish corpse and make it unrecognisable.
