i found it off from some sort of chinese news website, my friend said that thingy was founded in an octopus' stomach... well thats all he can tell me about it.
the original link is: news.qq.com...

does anyone know what the heck is that thing?

Yes,

It a slightly digested baby one of these!

You should have posted in Cryptozoology.

ew..wat are those things?

A bigger version of those little "rolley pollies".

LOL @ the giant rollie pollies! All I'm saying is that if those things are found in the ocean then I don't think I'll ever go swimming in it again! I think we need to raise more octupus' to release into the ocean if it means they'll eat all those babies!

I AGREE, haha those dont look like very safe creatures... anyone have any intel on to what they are?

yea i know.. they look creepy and dangerous

I think they look like giant woodlice. personally. It's probably a modern trilobite of some kind, from what I can tell.

wow. thats a creepy animal. never seen that before, look something like Half life creature

Wow tht is one heck of a creepy bug. it kinda looks like a spider from one of those science fiction movies. but my brother says that its some kind of horshoe crab that is like related to the spider.... creepy

bet they taste like chicken

lol taste like chicken....

i'd never eat those yucky thing

First is probably wood lice or an insect made to look bigger. Second one looks like some sort of crustacean. Thats probably what it is.

hmm from the pic i think its apx 6-9cm long

maybe a type of lobster that is discoverd or could be those leechs.

I wish i could eat it, maybe a french resturat in 2020 will serve it

*shudders* now that's f-ing gross

I think it looks like some kind of tick or louse.

The pictures in the second post, as described in the link, are of a giant isopod.
