Peacock Mantis Shrimp

Peacock mantis shrimp are arguably the most extraordinary animals in the ocean! They can punch with the speed of a bullet - fast enough to boil water around their fist and shatter crab shells in a single blow. Their eyes can see 16 different types of colour (humans see only 3), including ultraviolet and infrared light - making them see a world we cannot even imagine.
