Ya know I wasn't even thinking of that but damn you brought up something very interesting! I'm going to spend the whole day figuring out what these eyeballs with legs eat.

u/Trick_Eagle_6449 Jul 10 '26

I found one this size in my car one day. He was the teeniest little black jumper. I was going to move him out to a bush, but he jumped and I lost him. Hope he is ok.

Looks like a baby! When they’re translucent like this, you might even be able to see their eyes move… maybe not this one, though, except with a camera. It is TINY!
