BBC One has a wildlife documentary series called "Life Story." They featured a clip on wild hermit crabs (PP's) having a shell exchange chain after a new shell washes ashore. It's fascinating to watch, and also pretty adorable!

Awe! They're like colorful little dominoes! That's so interesting! How can people say they're dumb?! That's pretty intelligent if you ask me.

Really awesome, and shows how important getting shells are in the wild for the hermit crabs!

That is one of the cutest crabby documentry clips I've ever scene! It was far better than all the short clips in survivor that they sometimes use instead of a timelapse
