Wouldn't this make a great jigsaw puzzle?

Is it not true that there was once a living creature inside each of those shells? Now these creatures fell out of the shell or were removed by a hungry crab or fish? I suppose if I were a little sea creature living inside a shell and my fellow sea creature neighbor was no longer in its shell I would be alarmed. I can't help but wonder what they were doing before they washed up upon the shore.
