I have seen them cooked on an open fire,Get a flat rock and place the Limpets onto it (they will attach themselves to it) and then place rock into hot embers. Once the limpets are cooked remove the shell and take the 'foot'and enjoy, the 'foot' is the more meaty looking bit the rest is just it's stomach and should be discarded. Try cooking with razor clams for a lovely free seafood supper by the beach.
Limpets live in the intertidal zone and are stuck to the rocks.

Algae is mainly a limpets diet. They only feed at night and stay in one place all of their lives.
Limpets are commonly found along rocky shorelines sucking onto the sides or bottoms of the rocks.
Limpets change size in response to changes in environmental conditions such as food availability and competition for space. By adjusting their growth rates, limpets can adapt to their surroundings and optimize their chances for survival and reproduction. This flexibility in size allows limpets to better regulate their energy resources and improve their overall fitness.
yes
Yes, limpets are herbivores and feed on algae, including seaweed, by scraping it from rocks with their radula, a specialized feeding organ. Seaweed is an important food source for many species of limpets.
Radiate limpets, primarily found in rocky intertidal zones, face predation from various marine animals. Key predators include sea stars, which use their tube feet to pry the limpets off rocks, as well as certain species of crabs and fish that can access them. Additionally, birds may prey on limpets by using their beaks to extract them from their substrates. These predators play a crucial role in regulating limpets' populations and maintaining ecological balance.
