I don't have anything else to add, but that video was neat

It blew my mind. I had no idea that MANY crabs could be together in the wild. I found this awesome article on shell selection: http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-new ... 180947794/

Loved the video! Mind-boggling but made me glad I have only 5

. Neat to see the behavior of our little guys repeated in the wild, i.e., never go around an obstacle: just climb over it, no matter how inconvenient!

If I were shooting that I would be so worried I would crush them as I walked. I wonder if they just set up a go-pro and hoped for the best. Also, that article is pretty great. I have always thought it was odd that crabs have very distinctive tastes in shells.

Not sure exactly where to post this. But, it fits in the "mind blowing" category in my book!
