And here we see a chain of these elusive creatures, known as Surferus Strongestus, with several males at the back patiently following the lead female. It seems to be a sort of ritual they go through. The female will begin by picking up and incredibly heavy rock and go on a short journey on the ocean floor with it, a sign of strength and endurance. Curious males will begin following to see how long she will last. The crowd often disperses after it is done, and a handful of these males will return later for the next ritual of this sort. At the end of however many get done, the female will have a lifelong mate.
