CLINGY GIRLFRIEND 🦈
My OC Sam is a pink tiger shark and this is an “old” pic of her with her very first girlfriend, Moira the Remora.
If you didn’t know, remoras are a species of hitchhiking fish that attach themselves to larger fish like sharks, rays, whales, and sometimes even boats with their suction cup-like modified dorsal fin. They do this for protection, food opportunities, and increased respiration. They live off harmful parasites to the host animal as well as food scraps so it’s considered a mutualistic relationship, but Sam thought otherwise. Remoras are just...TOO clingy.
