The look like dinosaur fingernails or turtle's feet but they live on the rough coast of Northern Spain and locals risk their lives catching this precious gem.

Galicia is the region of Spain where you go to eat the best shellfish in the country. Galician food is based around what the sea gives us everyday and this weird-looking creatures are hard to catch but a pleasure to enjoy just boiled a few minutes on salted water.  They work perfect as a snack before diving deep on another Galician seafood delicacies like blue lobster, langoustines, red shrimps, clams, octopus, mussels and a wide choice of fish.
