Triops are small crustaceans that are sometimes sold as pets (somewhat like Sea Monkeys) and descend unchanged from a line hundreds of millions of years old.
Now the crocheters amongst you can create your very own Triops, thanks to the United States National Park Service. If minuscule is not your cup of crustacea, how about a halibut? Or a walleye?
Do remember to send in photographs of your completed specimen/s to share…
