Have you ever heard of Shen? It’s an ancient Chinese monster who is a giant clam. Well, 10 Giant Clams have arrived at the National Zoo .
Native to the warm waters of Indo-West Pacific coral reefs, T. crocea come in a variety of patterns and color mixtures. They have multicolored designs, and their mantle is usually decorated with iridescent blue, yellow or green blotches, spots or lines. The smallest of the giant clam species can grow up to nine inches
I never thought that invertebrates could be so intimidating, but here I am, writing about clams. However, I must admit that I thought if I ever were to write about Giant Clams, it would be how I escaped their captivity and how they were rolling down the streets of DC, shooting lasers out of their iridescent blue and green shell mouths, using seaweed lassos to round up my friends for their banquet of Human Chowder.
But for now, we are safe. We are Shen-Free. But just in case ...
This is the sign for Shen - Your new Overlord
