I refer to clams as a cross between a cow and a vacuum cleaner. And like a cow, some species of clams fart out a fair bit of methane, due to methanogenic microbes in their guts! Their farts may account for ~10% of methane released in some environments. So to answer a question I'm sure many of you have, yes, clams fart. #clamFacts
