Well that's pretty neat/terrifying.

it took nature a really long time to evolve jaws for some reason- early fish were pretty much worms that swam with an open mouth and giant scorpion like creatures ruled the oceans and also were among the first to crawl onto land.

“How to get food? Claws! How to put food in hole? More claws!!”

Once fish had jaws and teeth they got a big competitive edge

In the Tolkien universe there is a spider named Ungoliant that got so hungry she ate herself.

Her offspring Shelob can be seen trying to eat Frodo Baggins in LOTR until Samwise Gamgee stabs her with the Elvish blade Sting!!!

Spiders are just inferior crabs. Scorpions are land-crabs and thus superior to spiders

spiders are just vanmpire crabs (cranmpire)

^^I have some photos of whip-scorpions handy (which are not actual scorpions) who feed by mashing bugs against their mouth area and munching in a process known to scientists as “yucky”
