Great, they can drag chairs and other heavy objects away.

Well, the world’s ending anyways, might as well get killed by crabs.

Oh I am reminded of an old Men’s Adventure Magazine in which crabs are attacking a guy and his hot half naked girl!

Ah those old Men’s magazines.....Always promised more than they delivered.

Those crabs live on Guam.

A big one is worth about $75.00

Tourists are warned that robber crabs are 'protected and respected' on the island.

Once the word gets out that tourists are catching and boiling them crabs, they won't be so inclined to keep invading campsites......

Antifa/BLM are better at terror..than coconut crabs.

Unfortunately, they're inedible, unless fed to feral hogs. The crabs, OTOH, are very good eating, making them far more useful.

The situation calls for a hot bowl of melted butter and a can of garlic salt.

I read they have to keep the rear part of their shell wet. It has something to do with how they breathe. Really.

When I was a kid and the coconut crabs were migrating the locals would put a 55 gallon barrel in a fire pit half full of water and send us kids out to gather crabs.

They can snap a broomstick in their claws, but BOY are they yummy!

Luckily there's a special ointment for that...

Don’t post it all over social media and no one will be the wiser.

A working companion found it was easier to catch crabs and clap from visiting a skank at a bar in the edge of Oklahoma.

That would freak me the hell out.

Protected species. Now I know why there are so many and they are so bold. Start boiling a few thousand on the barbie and they wouldn’t be either many or bold.
