sand dollars doin their thing

they’re basically sea roombas

I mean, I knew on some fundamental level that they’re related to sea urchins. I knew that the parts that I find on the beach are their skeletons.

WHY DID THIS VIDEO SURPRISE ME??

They aren’t just related to sea urchins, they are sea urchins.

They’re just a group of really flat sea urchins with really short spines

who eat sand

I’ve met folks who never even knew that regular sea urchins crawled around, let alone sand dollars
