    Hello!
    In Portugal we eat this!
    We call it “Percebes” and its good, tast like smooth sea (there are no other way to describe it)!
    In many bar’s in the west coast, you could eat it with a good bear! They look strange but they are realy good!

    Cheers!

    quote:

    “..This barnacle may look like a mollusc but it is in fact a crustacean related to shrimps, lobsters and crabs.”

  24. sgsince89 says:

    To all you people saying ‘it’s not real’ it’s Gooseneck Barnacles…. NO SHIT, if you took 30 seconds to read the article you would see it says that…

  25. prezado says:

    ehehe if something like that ended up in a beach here in Portugal, you know what would happen to that? we’d eat it all

    ( those are sold pretty expensive ate seafood restaurants, no weird animal at all… )

  30. Mark says:

    I swear this exact same log washed up on Polzeath beach in Cornwall, feasable as its just across the water. I have photos ill add. Worst thing about this was the intense smell of salty rotting fishy flesh

  31. anna says:

    Um, if y’all read the article, it clearly states that the pictures are of a log encrusted in barnacles. :P

  32. Rocha - BR says:

    You got to be too mutch stupid to believe that’s a creature, monster or whatever.

  33. Debora says:

    It’s just a colony of this creature here:

    http://www.wallawalla.edu/academics/departments/biology/rosario/inverts/Arthropoda/Crustacea/Maxillopoda/Cirripedia/Lepas_anatifera.html

    Ask a biologist about these kind of things before you panic :)

  34. Daniel Furro says:

    This creature is a freak… Kill it people..

  35. This apparent creature seem to be a community of worms from the mid atlantic rift – the type that feed from the chemicals from volcanic vents. But I’m no expert.

  36. jimmy carter says:

    what is name of this creature.is it alive now ?

  37. landshrk says:

    Jeroen is right. it’s a colony of goose barnacles that has broken free of it’s moorings and floated to the surface. Not one thing, hundreds.

  38. Sony says:

    Take this thing for movie Alien 5!

  39. tipaklong! says:

    i got goose bumps!…haha that’s why it calls goose barnacles…really cant believe on these…its like a million worms gathering on somewhere…with a saltwater mussel on the tip…it’s amazing but frightens my whole body!…think i need a research on this!

  43. WTHCYR says:

    For those who take 30 sec to read the article, it says “it’s a log full of small animals called barnacles” but still you people go all out “KILL IT!! IT’S SATAN’S POO COMING TO EAT US ALL!!!!”
    No.
