Coconut Crab



The coconut crab is the largest terrestrial (land dwelling) arthropod in the world. It Is Just HUGE. Coconut Crabs are known to crush coconuts with their claws. That is a big crab!

Hi Matthew. Love your post on the coconut crab. I've never seen such a other-worldly beast! The one on the trash can must be from Neptune's zoo. You should put the pic directly in your blog. Much more dramatic! Keep writing.

Love,
Aunt Dianne
