Hello, beautiful community for today DailyCelestialChallenge | Tuesday-AnimalKingdom
I tell you about the magnificent Camarón Pistol
It is only a few centimeters long, and an arm that sticks out for its size, an arm with which you can, listen and read good friends shoot, if as you read it shoot and is nothing less but little known pistol shrimp.
The gun shrimp has been created to have a very powerful and long-range natural weapon, its own arm, which can close so fast and with such force that it produces a sound wave. The clamp closure on your arm lasts just one millisecond.

Creating a shock wave in this way is called cavitation, which is when a vacuum of water passes from the liquid to the vaporous state, that is, a bubble is created.

The shrimp gun uses a bullet-like bubble that can reach about 4 centimeters from the clamp. This bullet-bubble usually has so much acoustic pressure that it can quietly kill a small fish.
It is interesting that this natural pistol that the shrimp has in its claw is regenerated when for some reason it loses it; either by fighting with other shrimp of the same species and animals much larger than him.

Also, this weapon that has the pistol shrimp puts it in competition of noises in the seas along with the marine monsters ie the whales.
Amazing truth? No doubt the pistol shrimp just like other powerful animals were created by the creator of all God thing.
