Is it just me, or is this one of the scariest things ever?
If I lived in a place that had these I would never be without a shotgun.
from The WebEcoist
"This is not shopped. This is not a hoax. That is a giant crab on a garbage can.
They’re native to Guam and other Pacific islands. Coconut crabs aren’t endangered,
per se, but due to tropical habitat destruction they are at risk. In WWII, American
soldiers stationed in the Pacific theater wrote home with tales about entire atolls
being covered in the armor-plated giants. These crabs can crack a coconut in one
swipe; but they’re generally too slow to be very dangerous to humans."
Notice "generally" If it can crack a coconut, what would it do with a skull?
