One large marine snail, Charonia tritonis, feeds on the crown of thorns starfish. When these beautiful snails were overcollected for their shells, the crown of thorns multiplied rapidly and began destroying parts of the Great Barrier Reef. The snails are now protected and the situation is coming back under control.\n\nCharonia tritonis shell: http://www.hausdernatur.de/hnctrit.jpg\n\nCrown of thorns: http://ryanphotographic.com/images/JPEGS/Acanthaster%20planci%20Crown-of-thorns.jpg\n\nCharonia feeding on crown of thorns: http://members.cox.net/arniesdca/shells/charoniaOnCrownofTh.jpg\n.

Everyone knows oysters have transended all petty wars and disputes over property / religion / status etc. The great oyster enlightenment saw a new dawning for oyster-kind where the species welcomed a new dawn of prosperity, harmony and unity.\n\nAll hail the shellfish shamen!

Interesting question! As I do not know the answer, I started researching. It appears that other mammals are also collectively known as flock: camels, goats and lions, at least. \nHere's my two cents: \nThe term "flock" derives from an Old English word (flocc) which meant "a group of persons". Later it extended to mean "a number of animals of one kind moving or feeding together" applied to domestic animals. \nSo the question could be "Why are not all groups of domestic animals called flocks?"

I learned it's the Tethys Sea, but Wiki has it as an ocean.  My second link calls it the Tethys Sea.

It would be hard not to eat anything that was living since plants are also alive. I know that you meant of flesh and blood. I don't think the fish means lets go eat seafood. I think it is a symbol for the fisher of men. I don't eat any animal because I feel life is precious and should be respected. I don't tell other people what to eat because I feel people should be allowed to believe and live as they want.\nLove & Light\nSharon\nOne Planet = One People

Fauna is a collective term for animal life of any particular region or time. The corresponding term for plants is flora.

Molluscs include over 160,000 species, with about 128,000 of those species still iiving. The answerers who have never heard of a mollusc may be surprised to learn that almost any sea shell they have ever encountered is a mollusc, and that they likely eat molluscs from time to time as clams, oysters, mussels, abalone, scallops, escargot, and conch are all molluscs. Octopus and squid are also (very tasty) molluscs from the Class Cephalopoda.\n\nA typical example of a gastropod (P. Mollusca) is a cone shaped spiral shell of a snail. They live both in salt water, fresh water and on land, within all latitudes and down to about 3000 meters ocean depth.\n\nA Bivalve example would be a clam. Most are bottom dwellers, some bore into rock and wood, and they live in both fresh and salt water. Most inhabit shallow waters.\n\nAn example of a Cephalopod would be a Nautiloid. These attractive shell creatures swim in the ocean (in a fashion) typically in deep waters nearby shallower areas, and they typically feed in the shallow at night and retreat to depths during the day. Octopi and squid are other examples which show intelligence and have eyesight.

They vary as widely as the body plans of different mollusks, but basically there are both macrophagous (herbivores and predators) and microphagous (suspension feeders) forms.\n \n**Gasteropods (snails and slugs) are mainly herbivorous; they use their radula to scratch plant tissues. However, there are also predatory snails (with modified radula, or proboscis, or even a venom-injecting radula). There are also microphagous planktonic forms (pteropods).\n**Cephalopods (squids, octopi and their relatives) are predatory carnivores, they have a modified radula and a horny "beak" with which they eat different invertebrates and vertebrates.\n**Bivalves (clams, mussels, oysters, etc) are primarily microphagous or suspension (filter) feeders. They don't have a radula and rely on their modified gills for filtration. There are also some primitive detritivores among the bivalvians.\n**The chitons (Polyplacophora) are grazing herbivores (with  radula).\n**The Scaphopoda (tusk shells) capture small food items (particulate matter) with their tentacles (captacula).\n**Other less known mollusks include the caudofoveatans (these capture foraminiferans and other very small organisms from sediments), solenogasters (these eat corals) and monoplacophorans (with a radula, but not much is known about their ecology).

caviar is one, escargot (snails) is another. I think each country has their own delicacies though.
