簡介

刺粗得像古羅馬石柱,上面常長滿海藻與海綿,就像是一個移動的迷你花園。

Its spines are as thick as ancient Roman columns, often overgrown with algae and sponges, looking like a moving mini-garden.

小知識

牠們粗壯的鈍刺完全沒有毒性,厚重的鎧甲主要是為了抵禦礁石區強烈的海浪拍打。

Its incredibly thick, blunt spines are completely non-venomous; this heavy armor is mainly designed to withstand strong waves crashing on the reef.
