Voyage of the H.M.S. Beagle - Space edition

"Question... What the HELL IS THAT?!"

"Good question Nigel. Good question... Haven't got a clue. Could suggest running though. Just an idea..."

The gigantic creature stepped out of the undergrowth and roared. Its giant mouth splitting open like the petals of a beautiful red flower, lined with backwards facing teeth. It closed its mouth and turned its armoured vision ridges to look at them.

"Ooh! I think it's got holographic vision. Take a note, would you?"

"Barry. I wish I'd never stepped on-board the Beagle. I wish you'd never asked me to follow evolution across the galaxy! Bugger this!"
