Sand Clams are ambush "gotcha monsters" from Warhammer Fantasy and Warhammer 40K.
Warhammer 40K[edit]
The Carnivorous Sand Clam is an aquatic life-form from the planet of Salutation.
This clams lies on the shallow coastal margins where they feed on semi-aquatic animals. Carnivorous Sand Clam consists of two large serrated valves approximately 2 metres across. Most of the time it spends submerged in the sticky mud. When their victim stumble near the Clam, it feels the vibration of the creature's movement and suddenly opens, drawing sand and victim into its shell. Though humans are too large for the Clam to crush and eat, their powerful jaws could break the human's legs and only breaking the creature's shell could help the prey escape.
Warhammer Fantasy[edit]
