My mom gave me a dead cowrie shell when i was just a lil kid. I still have it now on my desk.. it's so beautiful i look at it everyday and use it as paperweight 💖

Dammanit. why do I live in Nigeria? I pick that the papillae help with camouflage. But the cowries found in Nigeria are the size of my thumbnail how come this one is the size of my brain? The cowries here in Nigeria where also used as currency back in the 1400's but now they still use them as symbol and necklace.
Wow what an amazing seashell.. I love cowries too.. I think we have the same field of interest. Thanks for sharing this vid..

Saw our newly purchased cowrie completely change its appearance and I got concerned! Such a cool snail!
a really lovely choice of music :)
I think in Thailand the word for money comes from the word in Thai for Cowrie as the shells were used as currency in old times.
Cowries don't bite or "sting" like cone snails (they have no harpoons or venom), so you can safely handle them while underwater.
So adorable
👏👏👏
❤❤🥰🥰
So cowries arent male and female like snails?
Does the shell grow with them or do they change shells like hermit crabs?
Who else came here from their economics class to find out more about these weird mediums of exchange in ancient china and india 😆😆
Idk how I got here but interested all the same.
