They are beautiful. I love sand crabs. :)

I hate when you chase them and they pop down in their holes! I just wanna go around and plug them all up so they got no where to go!

Daww, I saw crabs much like this on Kauai. I managed to catch one for pictures. Very hard crab to get close to.

Not sure about giving them peanuts. What if they are allergic?

park service personnel had been seen with spear like devices and they were killing the sand crabs because they thought the crabs were predators to the nesting birds...what ever happened to survival of the fittest???
