http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7br7uuH4wwThis morning I received an urgent telephone call from my good friend Pam Gaffin. She was terribly excited about an event that was happening before her eyes. Pam told me it was a migration of soldier crabs also called hermit crabs and there were millions and millions of them she likened it to the migrations of Serengeti. I didn't need to hear anymore, I loaded my car with cameras and was out the door. Pam told me that this began this morning at sunrise at Nanny point near Concordia. I have heard about this migration for years and knew that it occurred in August, I can't tell you how happy I am that Pam called. Pam you're my hero. — at Nanny Point, St. John, USVI.

Well thats just perfect! First we destroy the ozone layer, then el nino, then we poison the ocean, then global warming, now we've really done it, we've given the earth crabs... what's next? Gotta get NASA working on a huge probe of pennicilin or we are all screwed.

Love the credits lol. Love hermit crabs too and found this vid wondrous. I used to own 18 of these critters, all saved from abusive pet shops. Kept them in a big reptile cage on my covered front porch. Fed them little tossed salads, fresh coconut and other fruits, Fritos, bacon, and hermit crab food. I made them little huts with halved coconut shells. They had a Ritz of a habitat and little submerged ponds using terra cotta plant dishes. They lived a very long time in captivity and to this More..
