Chambered Nautilus Additional Info

Dialogue When Caught

"I got a chambered nautilus! Is it on the naughty list?"

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  The chambered nautilus is perhaps best known for its gorgeous shell.
Not only does this shell's interior shine with a pearly luster, it features a near-perfect natural spiral.
But those aren't the chambered nautilus's only bragging rights.
This cephalopod can have up to 90 tentacles, it's said!
These arms come coated with a sticky substance that helps the nautilus capture its prey...
Which is far better than using them for overly long hugs, I say.
