The juvenile sea squirt...

From CONSCIOUSNESS EXPLAINED, by Daniel Dennett, p. 177

        "The juvenile sea squirt wanders through the sea searching
        for a suitable rock or hunk of coral to cling to and make
        its home for life.  For this task, it has a rudimentary
        nervous system.  When it finds its spot and takes root, it
        doesn't need its brain anymore so it eats it! (It's rather
        like getting tenure.)"

(From the "Rest" of RHF)
