*The flame scallops shown in this video are not considered to be "true scallops". However, they have very similar characteristics.
My girlfriend has a vertical scallop 😅
Usually considered _girlfriends_ strongest muscle,

females don't make good narrators i don't care if you don't agree i gave this a thumbs down n no subscribe
@@andy2906 😂😂😂
Yeah, we all know, lmao 😅 @@andy2906
I had a pet scallop in a saltwater tank, the little blue eyes looked like a string of tiny lights or jewels around the edges of its shells.
What’d you name them?
how long did he live?
Any pictures/videos?
Bivalves are a bit of a pain in the aquarium I hear.
I may never eat another scallop again
Mind Blown!!! Who knew that scallops had so many eyes? ???
All the better to see danger with.
We ALL did, from age 8 or so.
They swim too
Very underappreciated animals, I deeply appreciate that you made this video. Sadly I don't think most of the public even view scallops as animals.
My only criticism is that the description of the scallop life cycle could have been a bit more detailed and some pictures of the different larval stages would have been appreciated.
Otherwise top notch work.
this is one of the predecessors that gave birth to the octopus
not sure what you mean by that first statement… are you meeting people who think they’re fungus or something? just because our relationship with something is a mainly as a food source doesn’t mean people don’t know what they are. i’ve met people who don’t know what they look like, but they’re all at, least aware that they’re a type of shell fish.
@@mkv2718I think it's just some people just see them as shells. Sandallars for example get the same treatment.
@@mkv2718 Exactly what you said. When I was a Child, I thought they are some kind of "Plant" or Coral, that Sticks to a Place, like Mushroom Spores and then Grows there for ever. I bet Grown Ups that have no interest in Nature think like that. "Ocean Mushroom". Back then, you also did not have Videos that show them Moving. Dude,some People do not know the differents between Man, Woman or Race. You Think they know THIS?
I'm am going to settle this right now. As I read the original comment, I thought to myself "scallops are animals?" And then I thought "yeah, I guess they would be, huh. What did I think they were prior to reading this?" But, I wasn't sure what I had previously thought. I guess I really just never gave it a thought.
Then I read the other two comments and I thought to myself "Oh yeah, that's what I previously thought! I thought they were one of those things that made shells." And my last thoughts were "huh??? What really is a sand dollar other than good luck? I wonder if they move like a starfish does or if they just somehow reproduces, lands somewhere on the ocean floor, and then grows?"
I promise that I am a reasonably intelligent person and I am well educated but clearly my first two paragraphs do not reflect that. However, I am willing to bet that the OP is right in that many people probably just don't give them a thought. I don't eat anything that lives in the water so that could account for some of my lack of thinking about them.
I really am being serious throughout my comment and I am serious now. I have to go look up some information on sand dollars bc I'm the type of person that doesn't like to wonder about something. I want to know about it. I understand how my entire comment to this point would not pin me as a person that likes to absorb as much information as possible. Fair enough.
It’s so cool how they have eyes with pupils that contract and help them elude predators- very impressive when you consider they have no brain.
Great vid. Keep up the awesome work !
The first popular books I'm aware of about foraging for wild foods were written by Euel Gibbons in the 1970's. One of his books was titled "Stalking the Blue-Eyed Scallop".
Sounds like the person currently occupying the White House. Trump 2024
A brain is just composed of cells that are specialized in transmitting information, you are not just simply your brain, you are your entire body. Michael Levin for example has proved that not only brain cells are capable of holding memory and learning new things, he has shown that skin and muscle cells are capable of doing the same thing but at a smaller scale. Due to his research new theories are reaffirming what was already believed, that memories can be held within organs such as your heart, lungs, gut, and even your skin. So although these species do not have brains, so to speak, it isn't really required because they aren't required to do a lot of complex activities, so you don't need those specialized cells. All the other cells can do the job just fine.
@@savvyvenusimpressive you managed to bring your national politics into this😂
@@Gnerko123absolutely
No wonder they're nutritional content is 80% protein. They're super strong and all muscle.
You mean all mussel?
How much time do you think they expend at the gym ? Or do they use drugs ?
I'm very sorry to be the guy but...
*their
@@MrBrineplays_ I bet you are
@@thesoloveichiks159 "No wonder they are nutritional content is 80% protein."
It's still wrong bro. "they are nutritional content is"???? No lol, it's their, because THEIR nutritional content is -> 80% protein. Not they are the nutritional content
So beautiful. Thanks a million Deep Marine Scenes.
these abominations need to burn imo but ok
Amazing. I had no idea they were so complex
I’ll never look at a plate of perfectly seared scallops the same. 🙂👍🏼
I’ve always found scallops adorably cute when they swim
They don’t swim.
It’s water-based jet propulsion.
The eyes had me. I can’t eat scallops anymore. I’m finding it harder and harder to eat anything that has a face. Great job on your video by the way. Your presentation value is top notch.
Yea, the eye thing cause me to see scallops differently as well. Kinda easier to eat things when we see the as being mindless.
Wow thanks for showing us your soy consumption is alarmingly high.
i really appreciate the straight-forward presentation, very relaxing video style.
What in the blue-eyed scallop are you doin' in me bedroom?
They have 200 blue eyes? I'm losing my appetite
And im gaining my appetite. Mmmm now I'm hungry for Seafood 😋
200 blue eyes sounds beautiful
Lol I never new
I’m eating them right now
😍😍😍😍
Scallops is my favorite seafood. Next up, king crab legs. Yummy. Our oceans provide an abundance of treasures. We need to take care of it at all costs. Don’t pollute, don’t overfish.
One of my favorites too since I’m allergic to crustaceans.
How fascinating, I do eat them once in awhile but no more. After watching this video I don ´t know if I will ever have adductor muscles in garlic sauce again ….
Im cooking some now... I wanted my boy to understand what a scallop is. I feel criminal.
I'd feel less bad about it if it was most of the animal, but I dislike seeing so much of it just being thrown out. Good for local scavenging fish I guess. Hopefully they get it, and not the extreme over populated seagulls.
Omg I feel awful I’ve been a vegetarian since 9 years old and I have been eating scallops because I heard they had no nervous system but they’re so cute 😭
I love animals but I also understand that animals eat animals and we are animals ourselves. There’s no shame in doing what predatory animals do best. Eat other animals. Would you deny your dog meat if it wasn’t already processed for him? Then why deny yourself the same right.
@@DrawinskyMoon because we have evolved to the point to not NEED to rely on eating meat and to experience complex emotions like empathy. If you eat animals you don’t love them anywhere near as much as you think you do
Now I know what I am eating tonight, thoroughly.
If you sized up a scallop to the size of a horse, it’d look like a monster out of Lovecraft. Moving shells with tons of muscle, 200 staring blue eyes, waving tendrils. Just insane. Such a cool species
Really nice video about scallops! I learned things I didn’t know!
Thanks for all the scallop facts!
Yeah it's insane that many people don't know that scallops can actually swim, so when SpongeBob said "The scallops are chirping" in the bubble stand episode, he actually wasn't that far off. Plus Hillenberg was a marine biologist.
ERM... WHAT
THE SCALLOP
Well, I'm hungry now. Looks like i'll be having scallops for dinner tonight!
The 200 eyes part is both fascinating and terrifying
Great video! Really informative. 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
I went scalloping with my brother in Florida once. The scallops ARE great swimmers and will do their best to get away when you try to catch them.
I like the diversity of scallops~
Thank you for sharing this video~🤗
I was looking for an educational video about scallops like this one- very informative, thank you!
Fascinating and informative.
Awesome Video! I never thought scallops were so complex
so cool, all those eyeballs!...hurts me seeing them cut with knife so callously
Thank you for this video! Scallops are wonderful creatures.💙
They’re stinky.
And tasty
This is a very nice video.. Thanks for sharing this..
This is an excellent video, thank you for sharing. One word of advice I would recommend using a de-esser plug-in to eliminate sibilance as the “S” whistles were quite heavy on the ears! 😅 Thanks again for sharing!
Discriminating against snakes, bird chicks, some lizards, and vampires!
Begone!
this channel rules
I love scallops they are so elegant and look like royal queens and kings. 😊
you just made me fall in love with scallops. im so glad I stopped eating seafood 12 years ago

Scallop
Today thanks to inktober i have learned about those creatures. I'm amazed
I am not a vegetarian, with that said I limit types of meat I eat. And how often. I love scallops but I saw a similar video and found myself unable to eat them again. I felt a connection to them somehow. Funny I know but true.
I love this channel so much!
They're so adorable!!!! Sho is tute shucks on it!!! They make great eating as well!!!
Educational video, thanks
In deeper waters of the California coast you can find rock scallops which attach themselves permanently to rocky structures. The portion attached to the rock is flatter than the opposite side. These rock scallops can get rather large with abductor muscle being very large. I used to dive for them at a depth of 90 feet. Many divers enjoy them raw.
I've eaten them right where I caught them.
Rub them to remove the unwanted parts, remove regulator, take a bite.
Doesn't get any fresher than that.
Would you know the rain and purpose for the US only allowing the muscle to be eaten?
I’m not saying I’d even eat the remainder, but am curious at the reasoning.
@@OneAccord1 I have no idea.
@@gsxrsquid thanks for the reply. Guess I’m off to Google. 😂
I'll never eat another. I had no idea ...😢😢😢😢
They taste delicious. One of my favorite seafoods.
I love scallops.
Also being blue-eyed, i can tell you that eyes evolved many, many times in the last 1/2 billion years. We mostly know of three, vertebrates, molluscs, insects.
It remains possible that escaping scallops are not taking threats seriously, as they wink often when squirting away.
Scallops wrapped in bacon is the shit fr fr
When are you inviting us for dinner,?
I’ve never gave this much thought.
All 200 blue eyes are getting eating 😍😍😍
I like to think that their eyes cause some kind of cosmic horror. Like, they see all those individual frames and it drives them insane trying to take it all in. Thats how i like to think their eyes work.
Finally! Scallop facts!
Great information
Imagination a predatory scallop that eats fish...
dive the daver
Im just now seeing how a shell is alive let alone can move.
There cute and so amazing ...what fasinating creatures.
They taste incredible too
They’re stinky.
Great video.
Just casually doing research before hunting
Watching and listening from pinas garita San Enrique iloilo tnx ma'am.
Fun fact Scallops are also my second favorite seafood behind bluefin tuna
Welp this made me never want to eat scallops ever again, I never knew they had eyes
Exactly ☠️💯
Good luck with that.
tasty
Great video
WHAT???? I'm an animal lover this is fascinating.
erm… what the scallop
Is sad how the US is so wasteful of the rest of the scallop especially when clams and oysters are eaten whole and sometimes raw. Makes no sense. Great video mahalo for sharing
yes, indeed. a good example of how over regulation can be a problem. what would even be the point of a law like that? i mean, if people are allowed to eat puffer fish, which have a chance to kill you if prepared improperly, why stop people from eating the whole scallop?
hopefully the rest can at least be used for bait/chum. it would be terribly wasteful if it just needed to be discarded
Scallops be yummy, but expensive in Colorado. Kroger's wants $15.99 for a 12 ounce bag, and that's only two dinners.
An educated guess as to why?
@@myriamickx7969 My guess is I live about a thousand miles from the nearest shore.
@@ANDROLOMA
RIGHT!!! Congratulations!
What the Scallop
Still suprised that those animal spieces can actually move around
Very helpful
this might explain how squid and octopus share ancestors with the shellfish
Amazing creature, let’s not make this animal go extinct now.
100 of million of eggs. Didn't think you heard that
@@gmod3409
When an animal has more than maybe 10 eggs at time, it means at least 75-99 % of them get eaten by predators before becoming adults and reproducing.
It’s also why animals like sharks and humans and others have mostly one baby at a time.
More eggs does not mean it’s harder to make them extinct.
YOUR CHANNEL IS THE BEST THING EVER I LOVE YOU /p
Erm… what the scallop?
Erm... what the clam?
Erm… what the oyster?
LMAO😭😭😭😭
erm… what the geoduck?
Erm… what the sea cucumber?
I always wanted to be a scallop; it would be so cool.
scallops are the one thing on earth that i know i have no ability to eat. Every time I have eaten them, sometimes accidentally I have vomited.
I want one as a pet
Pretty good with garlic butter too.
Never eaten one and never will. They're fascinating.
not a seafood fan
@@saintessa A clean, tasty meat I first discovered in the military. Only slightly less popular than shrimp.
@@ANDROLOMA how would you describe the taste? I like flake (shark), calamari and the occasional shrimp. I'm just not big on the sea taste I think
@@saintessa Like I wrote, clean and tasty. A slightly unique flavor, like shrimp, but not as profound; almost devoid of taste. A striated texture adductor muscle that peels in strips. Costs $15.99 for a 12oz bag at my store, which provides two meals, a rather cost-prohibitive expense as a rule.
Not to worry about not liking seafood. My wife doesn't either, and assures me full lives can be lived while never having eaten any.
Thumbs up if you thought scallops looked like in the wild how they come on tour plate.
Need this person to talk for 10 hours straight so I can use it as a sleeping aid.
i knew they had eyes but not that they even had _pupils_
Very interesting.
So would their shell help indigestion or acid reflux? Tums and baking soda are Calcium carbonate
My favorite sea food!
Right On Great Video
What the scallop!
love Scallops . they taste so good. I eat a lot of em
So I just read that scallops are attracted to LED lights
Wild scallops the best and my favorite seafood
Super interesting! Thanks! Just FYI, in Spain the whole scallop is eaten.
Can scallops learn tricks? How do you train them? How are they as pets?
my gal cancelled my coquilles st Jacques for an important / interview dinner party: she took pity on the scallops blue eyes, and remarked pitifully to advance her hard softness.
Her family raised mammals with dark eues.
Please. You ate ham and beef.
My favorite seafood
Terrifying with all those eyes.
and they taste so good!
This is some spooky sh*t. Gotdamn... 🤯😳😣
Amazing!
US regulations are insane, the roe from all other shellfish is eaten, and roe from fish as well.
How can I ever eat scallops again after. Seeing those beautiful blue eyes?.. a living animal that swims away to save itself from harm...an animal that feels fear.....
