Average weight

[edit]

Would be useful to have the average weight of males and females, not this vague "reaching a mass of 17.6 kg". Nog642 (talk) 22:43, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Blood chemistry ?

[edit]

The King Crab, found in the very northernmost oceans of the planet, is so called because it has a copper-based blood protein rather than the iron based haemoglobin. As a result, its blood is blue rather than red. Wot about this guy? 2001:8003:E40F:9601:930:D082:3CF5:C6A8 (talk) 10:59, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
