The largest mollusk animal that ever lived millions of years ago, is still the prima donna animal for humans in this century. But the existence of the ancient exotic beast that ruled the seas has been displaced by the existence of humans. Their dazzling shells are an art attraction for the world's coveted collectors of not only the fossils, but the main thing is a business behind them.
Look at this masterpiece! The empty golden shell that represents the beauty, uniqueness and value of this animal. The disgusting color of the tongue likens the ugliness of human greed. And the mortal pink background that envelopes our little world with theirs lives.
