Most things in Nature work together, and live together in harmony.
It is easy to focus on predation, but there are many examples of
mutual blessing between different creatures.
On such example is the South pacific blind shrimp, and its helper
the goby - full name Luther's goby fish.
The goby fish cannot dig a shelter, so the shrimp does this, and the
shrimp cannot see to find food, so the goby guides it about.
The shrimp senses where the fish is by touching it with its antennae.
Having 'taken the shrimp for a walk' and fed it, the goby guides
the shrimp back to the hole, where it lives, and hides, in
safety with the shrimp.
It may be that these two very different creatures learned how to
live together, but that does not explain how other IDENTICAL goby
and other IDENTICAL shrimp live the same way - or why no other
types of shrimp or fish share the same relationship.
How is it that only these two specific varieties have come to work
together?
A logical answer is that God created them this way,
and programmed them to do what they do.
