Crab of the Week - 5

Go team! This week’s Crab of the Week is the Pom-Pom Crab!

Also known as boxer crabs, these crazy critters carry stinging sea anemones in each of its tiny claws! Due to their tiny claws, they use the anemones to both fend off predators, and grab onto food!

Apparently, in ancient times, men who claimed to be sorcerers used these. What for? I’m not sure. Perhaps the wizards held secret underground fighting arenas between their pet boxer crabs!
