Coconut Crab

I saw this picture of the garbage bin and thought it was a fake crab climbing it but it turned out to be a real one! It’s a Coconut Crab which is the largest land living crab. It’s called Coconut Crab because of its ability to crack open coconuts. [Link]

Its from Guam noobs. That one is a baby, we used to ride on the adults for transportation. Everyone eats the babies so they never get to their full adult size.

well guys sorry to bust your bubble. but this crab is real and very strong too. to think that we have a hard time to hold a baby one with two hands.. this one will chop you in half… and it’s here on the island of guam…. this crab is not afraid of humans. a baby one will chop the digits right off you hand…..
