Crabs

February 2nd 2009 01:29
Crabs are generally covered with a thick exoskeleton, and armed with a single pair of claws. There are almost 7000 known crab species. They can be found in all of the world's oceans. Additionally, there are many freshwater and land crabs, particularly in tropical regions. Crabs vary in size from the pea crab, only a few millimetres wide, to the Japanese spider crab, with a leg span of up to 4 m.

Today's post features pictures of just a few crab species which grace our planet.
