Hermit crabs line up and organize shell swapping
Information
Video published by BBC Earth
Hermit crabs, also called pagurids and part of the decapod crustaceans, regularly need to hide their abdomen inside a shell.
As they grow, they have to look for another, better-fitting shell, mainly abandoned shells on the beach.
When several hermit crabs gather to change homes, we can observe a kind of musical chairs game, where each one leaves its shell for a neighbor’s.
This video is worth watching.
