Shrimpology

Shrimpology is the science entailing the study of the various shrimps that inhabit the land, air and seas. 
== Origins ==
The roots of shrimpology are set in the work of the first Shrimpkeepers, figures detailed in old karric sources. These figures had the ability to rally up entire nests with one call, and could have been instrumental to the territorial expansion of early karric civilization. They are mentioned with honorifics reserved to priests, which hints at a possible religious role. 
Centuries later, shrimpology developed through the works of philosopher such as Karavalm, Aristotle, Plato, Mahavira, Zabloing and various others. It is known that shrimps were studied under not only a purely naturalistic perspective, but also a metaphysical and religious one. Much of the work of shrimpology was based on the study of ancient texts, transcribed by Karavalm himself.
Much of the interest in shrimps was in their acquatic forms, as their terrestrial ones weren't as developed. Acquatic shrimps were catalouged and classified on the based of elemental distribution, and nature. Venomous, edible, and inedible one were discerned and catalogued. Lastly, shrimp taming and the uses of shrimps were discussed. Religiously, they were associated with Floppus.
