This giant red hermit crab at @GulfSpecimen Marine Lab is wearing a custom, man-made glass shell. When we see hermit crabs, only their eyeballs on stalks, a bunch of claws and sputtering mouth parts are visible. By providing this crab with a transparent home, the people at Gulf Specimen Marine Lab are able to observe and educate the public about the rest of the the crab’s body without having to crack its shell open (which often kills the crab).
Giant red hermit crabs are the largest and most distinctive hermit crab in the western Atlantic. They occur in the Carolinas and on both sides of Florida, into the tropics.
For decades, @GulfSpecimen has been running a public education center in Panacea, FL, educating thousands of school kids each year about the wonders of marine creatures from the Gulf of Mexico and beyond.
