Why did you put Shrimp in quotations?
Because gigantic (means BIG) and shrimp (means small) is a oxymoron??

Scientists think it's some type of mantis shrimp (which are actually not related to shrimp, but are a type of crustacean called a stomatopod), and continue to review the photos to identify the exact species.
