The pistol shrimp, also known as the snapping shrimp, typically has a robust body with a large claw that is significantly larger than the other. Its coloration varies, often featuring shades of orange, yellow, or brown, which helps it blend into its environment. The shrimp can measure up to 2 inches in length and has a somewhat flattened body, with compound eyes that give it a distinctive appearance. Its most notable feature is its oversized claw, which it uses to create a loud snapping sound that can stun prey and deter predators.
