My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 873: Largest hermit crab

The fifth and sixth floors are also in a state of renovation, and there is no store or booth currently open.

After Xiang Yang turned around the entire Binhai Department Store, he found that the current entire Binhai Department Store is completely an empty shell. There is still a long way to go before it is truly profitable.

"Brother Yang, do you want to eat a KFC?" Xiang Hui asked Xiang Yang.

"Stop eating, I want to walk on the beach." Xiang Yang's face was a little sad, and it was much more difficult to develop tourism than Xiang Yang imagined.

In the past, Xiang Yang thought that as long as he had enough funds, it would be a matter of minutes to build a tourist area.

But now Xiang Yang found that it is very difficult to really start the tourism industry.

Soon, the three of them left the Binhai Department Store and walked along the beach in the direction opposite to Yanlong Village.

Few people have visited this section of the road, and all kinds of intact or damaged shells are everywhere on the beach.

"Brother Yang, are you going to see the cruise ship? It's not close to here, do you want me to go back and ride a bike?" Xiang Hui said.

Xiang Yang shook his head. Instead of going to the yacht, he just wanted to walk around here.

Xiang Yang remembered that he used to be here, and occasionally manatees would swim here.

For ordinary fishermen, the manatee is still a bit scary. Whether it is its huge body or its loud voice, it will make people feel intimidated, so over time, no one here comes over.

"Hey, Brother Yang, look at that, does it look like a spider?" Zuo Fatty suddenly asked with a finger in one direction.

The reason why Fatty Zuo said that it did not look like a spider was really because that creature was really too big. Although it looked like a spider, it was a large black mass that made people look at it. be terrified.

Xiang Yang raised his eyebrows and said with certainty: "This is a hermit crab."

"What the hell? Hermit crab? It's impossible, right? There are such big hermit crabs there." Xiang Hui was the first to question.

Xiang Hui has seen hermit crabs more than once or twice. He knows very well that hermit crabs are the kind of strange crabs that are not as big as a slap and will fall out of their shells when they are knocked with a wooden stick. .

Xiang Yang shook his head and said, "This is indeed a hermit crab. At the same time, it is also the largest type of hermit crab. It can grow up to one meter in length. It is not only the largest terrestrial crab, but also the largest terrestrial crab. Arthropods are huge, with a maximum weight of nearly 20 catties. This is only slightly larger than a football, and it is considered very small among this type of hermit crab."

This hermit crab has a hard shell and two powerful giant claws. It is an expert tree climber, especially good at climbing straight coconut trees, because they can use their strong double claws to peel off the hard coconut shell to eat it. Coconut pulp, so some people call it coconut crab.

Xiang Yang told Xiang Hui: "The body and appendages of this hermit crab are very thick, with wavy wrinkles on the surface of the cephalothorax and feet, the gill area of ​​the cephalothorax is particularly enlarged, the forehead is triangular, and the eye scales are small. The left claw is generally larger than the right claw, and the rest of the body is symmetrical on both sides, because it does not need to live in the snail shell that restricts the growth of the body. The appearance of this hermit crab is very large after adulthood, and it is the largest on land. Arthropods."

The eyes of this hermit crab are red, and the body color is related to the external environment in which it lives, ranging from purple-blue to orange-red, and even black humans.

Studies have shown that the size of male coconut crabs is much larger than female coconut crabs.

The larvae of this hermit crab, called coconut crab, are very similar to other land hermit crabs in the early stage of reproduction. When they grow from bigeye larvae to juvenile crabs, they also carry a snail shell and protect their abdomen until the abdomen develops and hardens the carapace. Spiral shell.

They are a hermit crab that grows widely in tropical oceans, but they are very different from ordinary hermit crabs.

Generally, hermit crabs live in the spiral shells of gastropods, so their bodies are soft and asymmetrical, but coconut crabs have got rid of the snail shells that bind their bodies. They will grow up in sand or tree roots. The place is looking for or digging for caves, so the body grows big and strong, except that the crab claws that prey are one big and one small, the structure of the body is symmetrical.

"Strange." Xiang Yang stared at the coconut crab and frowned.

"What's weird?" Zuo Fatty was quite puzzled.

Xiang Yang shook his head and said: "Coconut crabs generally like to live in tropical forests near the sea. They are very good at climbing trees. They can climb to the tops of coconut trees, palms, and castanopsis trees. Eight meters, it’s not tropical here, and there are no coconut trees. How come there is a coconut crab on the beach."

Coconut crab is an animal originating from the sea. Like other animals that originally lived in the sea and then migrated to land, they must face the problems of breathing and water loss.

Therefore, the inner wall of the gill cavity of the coconut crab has many blood vessels that can help breathing. It also has a armored shell, which can inhabit high humidity, and has shelters and cavities that can block the sun.

The most important thing is that coconut crabs hate sunlight very much. During the day, they usually dig holes in soft soil, hide in the caves and hide in the sun, and only come out for food at night.

"Why, can this kind of crab live without coconut trees or not in the tropics?" Xiang Hui asked.

Xiang Yang shook his head, "That's not true. As long as there is sufficient food, it can live on land for a long time, and it will return to the ocean to lay eggs in the breeding season."

"That's not enough. Since it can live here, it's no surprise that it appears here." Fang Youqun said with a grin.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yang burst into laughter.

But think about it carefully~www.readwn.com~ Isn't that exactly the case?

Coconut crab is not limited to living on coconut trees, it just likes to live on coconut trees.

"Let's go, let's catch it, such a large coconut crab is enough for the three of us to eat a meal." Xiang Yang rolled up his sleeves and said.

Fatty Zuo hesitated, he pulled Xiang Yang and said, "Brother Yang, this crab is so ugly, can it be eaten?"

Xiang Yang was about to explain. Xiang Hui, who was on the side, rolled up his sleeves and strode towards the coconut crab, "If you don't eat it, I will eat it with my brother."

When Xiang Yang saw Xiang Hui had gone, he didn't feel anxious. Xiang Hui also grew up on the beach by touching crabs. Dealing with a coconut crab was a matter of grasping.

"In the whole crab family, except for some poisonous crabs, all crabs are edible, especially this kind of coconut crab, because it likes to eat coconut, so its meat quality is very good, it is a kind of taste. Very delicious seafood." Xiang Yang said with a smile to Zuo Fatty.
