Conus albuquerquei
Conus albuquerquei is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Conidae, the cone snails and their allies.[1] Like all species within the genus Conus, these snails are predatory and venomous. They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all.

gollark: Well, it does, when it crashes with too long without yield.

gollark: Not really.
gollark: Coroutine usage directly is generally best for setups where you need to add/remove coroutines during execution.
