A LUCKY SOLDIER CRAB!




Erskine spotted this soldier crab inside an entrance to Fresh Market the other day. The hurricane must have blown it in!

As a boy growing up on Long Island, Erskine says he used to look for soldier crabs in the bushes and take them in a little basket to fish with them. 

This soldier crab was lucky! Erskine took it outside and found a nice bushy area, where it crawled away.

  1. That's a weird looking creature. I guess it's curled up as a protective measure.
