We know when that (crab) hotline bling, that can only mean one thing: a crab we're tracking has been found.

Scientists at @smithsonianenvironment have been following blue crabs throughout the Chesapeake Bay for decades to understand the impact fisheries have on crab populations.
They record each crab's information and fit the animal with a tag that has a unique number. Anyone who catches a tagged crab is asked to call the hotline to report its location—one as far as California.

By tracking the movements of individuals, scientists learn how blue crabs move about the Bay, which will help protect crabs from being overfished in the future.
