Goose barnacles, also called stalked barnacles or gooseneck barnacles, are filter-feeding crustaceans that live attached to hard surfaces of rocks and flotsam in the ocean intertidal zone. Goose barnacles formerly made up the taxonomic order Pedunculata, but the group has been found to be polyphyletic, with its members scattered across multiple orders of the infraclass Thoracica. #goosebarnacle #animalworld #Nature Natural World 𝑭𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒔. | Natural World

Gooseneck barnacles are one of the most expensive seafoods in the world. Just 1 pound can cost over $100 in Spain and Portugal, where the barnacles are considered a delicacy. But getting your hands on them is harder than it seems. The job comes with serious risks — and even the possibility of death. So why are these barnacles so difficult to harvest?
