My wife and I met a nice couple on our honeymoon. After the wives went to sleep, Matt and I decided to go hunting for "land crabs" as he called them. Needless to say, we had a few drinks.
I have this fascination with all things crustacean, especially land crabs. I love watching the way they move. This guy was crossing the path in front of us in Mexico.

The coconut (or robber) crab is the largest land crab in the world. It can grow to one meter in leg span and live for 60 years. I had never seen or heard of one until this happened.
Christmas Island is in the Indian Ocean, near Indonesia. There are around 100 million crabs living on the very small island. Most of them are not this big.
