they are triops
similar to brineshrimp/sea monkeys

very common out west in any puddle that forms after rain
that said fish love to eat them so never found together
Very ancient life form
we are talking like really old
billions of years?

thats still dam old!
I know if your in WA ya can go to that place with the weird headlike things
at the beach....
um stomphotes or something like that
3.8 billion year old fossil things.
crazy stuff,
not that the land coming alive with weird horseshoe crab things when it
rains isn't weird tho.
triops are great
silver lining for me once on a trip that saw us dig the 4WD outta mud about
50 times
