i found this thing in the sand at the beach during low tide in carlsbad. the sand was very wet. it was shaped like an oval wiht an indentation at the top. and it kinda looked like the cross section of an apple. at the indentation was this wormy projection about 4 cm long. the whole thing was pretty much flat and 8 cm in diameter. it had a soft body with bumps on the top and ridges radiating out from the central point on the underside. the underside looked like that of a mushroom. the top was gray and the bottom was purple. what is it? is it even alive?

It's not metallic, I've smelled it. It has smell. However, I'm writing a book and it has a war scene. I need to know the specifics about the smell of blood. If anyone can offer a good response please do!

It happens when the food (say, jalapeno peppers) touches a specific point in the back of my throat. Very strange.

Go, ahead; I challenge you to try and find me an animal that matches the following description. I don't know if it exists, but if someone finds it or something close to it, they will be chosen as best answer.

Here it goes:

A MAMMAL that is found either in NORTH AMERICA or EUROPE, has a THIN BODY, a LONG TAIL and perhaps covered in small SPOTS.

By beat evolution I mean, can humans select what we believe are desirable chracteristics and try to establish them preemptively, despite the fact that they run contrary to our current biology or adaptions.
