So wait...the new legs and claws grow separately and tucked in???? So is there still meat in the old legs or is it absorbed to not waste the nutrients?? 😮😮
This unfortunately happens to tarantula's and other inverts as well. :( Lot of keepers on tarantula YT, have lost some very beloved pets they had for years and years to one bad molt. (RIP Lord Have Mercy the OBT from Exotic Lairs...) This is also why it's hard to breed some of these guys too because molt death can happen at ANY age.
@@garliconionshallot You can't. They're not as robust as you think and helping a molt is just not something you do because if you do you could *rip them in half*. They're still insects and squishy inside.
@@garliconionshallot You can't sedate a tarantula, the only sedation that any T keeper gives them is the Clove Oil Mercy Nap to the other side Tarantula keepers love their tarantulas as much as anyone loves their cats or dogs... but the worst thing is most of the time, they have to do their own vet care and pray to god, the forum information they're given will do it. Fish keeping is like this too. We're basically sent in having no medical experience suddenly having to know how to be a marine life vet
@@garliconionshallot Your so welcome. Tarantula and fish keeping is interesting but it is not for the faint of heart. A lot of pets sold as "low maintenance" are actually high maitenance and if you have a passion for them, you will doanything for them like any pet owner would. I"m allergic to everything with fur so if I wanna get a pet in the future I wanna get a reptile or a spider. Can I recommend Exotic Lairs and Tarantula Kat as really informative Tarantula and exotic pet channels? Even if you don't have inverts, I love watching them just for how personable and how fun they are. My favorite Tarantula Kat video is when she got her pet trapdoor spider Wednesday
As a person who has an irrational, inexplicable fear against crabs, this is nightmare fuel. But God damn it it's WATOP, so it's bound to be interesting!😭
MBARI rover found a hydrothermal-vent-crab-species with a specific behavior, when one caught a fish, it dispatched the struggling prey by deftly positioning the head in the free claw and in a single motion, twisted the fishes head off at the gills: seeing it left researchers to moniker the species, head-hunter-crabs, and I just wanted to pass the find on.
Great stuff as always. I think it's funny how this channel will do a few vids with the same subject matter in a row. I like to think of it like first they serve you some crab content. But then they have leftovers so they stick them in the fridge then later they reheat them and add a few other things and serve that the next day. But with whales, the leftovers can last for like a whole week.
Did anybody else had the word “delicious” popping into their heads while watching the video? Also bigger crabs could mean that we could solve world hunger with crabs!
Is it better to have an internal skeleton ? With old age our skeleton became more fragile, the renewing of our bones get slower and slower and small fractures can take month or years to heal, and we can break our sacrum bone to easily when we are old. Decapodians like lobsters are virtually young forever, they don't have our internal clock which limite our age, but can die of hunger because they are too big, or in an incomplete mold. Its incredible, eternal youth biologically exist, but for the sake of the specie we are disposable and we age and die. Some species like sturgeon are young all their life, but in the last week of their life, their body decrete a programmed death, so the sturgeon became old in only one or two weeks and die of old age.
I wonder if any scientists have invested like a lot of time and energy making one crab live as long as possible by constantly supervising it and maybe assisting it using tools VERY gently
My brain is so confused by that thumbnail, it looks like a spider and so i feel afraid. But it looks like a crab so i dont feel afraid at the same time.
3:31 So if a crab were to get help getting out of their old shell and were given a very good healthy diet, they could theoretically live forever? (Like one being cared for in captivity)
No, but not for the reasons you might think. The main reason why a crab cannot be immortal is because eventually it would grow to a size too big for its own body mass to be able to handle, and its chitin would to too brittle to handle the massive weight of that eventual size. Basically, eventually a crustacean would grow to a size where it becomes too heavy for its own chitin to not break under its own weight, and said weight would also cause its own body to collapse in on itself and crush its own organs. So even if you go full cyborg and give it an artificial mecha-exoskeleton to solve the chitin strength issue, you'd also need a way to regulate gravity so that its own girth doesn't cause gravity to flatten its organs by simply existing.
"How Do Crabs Die?", I put medicated cream on mine. I asked a friend what's the difference between a Lobster and a Crab, he said "Crabs walk sideways", I said to the Mrs, "I told you I've got Lobsters".
They really eat everything, even their own babies. And we do it them when they just got out of their old shell and are very squishy. You eat the entire thing. Cooked, obviously.
I remember reading a post, probably 4chan, where a bunch of dudes planned on making some kind of "lobster king" by manually aiding in the molting process among others. Probably just a shitpost.

Usually it happens when theyre saying "Money! Money! Money!" Followed by a horrific scream

ALL HAIL THE CRAB 🦀 🦀🦀🦀
Forgetting to drink water at the Crab Rave™
this is how soft-shelled crabs are made
*Amount of carbon in the atmosphere and oceans increases*
Humans: *Panics*
Crabs: It's free real estate
Crabs die when they are killed. -Emiya
in comparison the skin molting of snakes and lizards for growth is much less vulnerable than that of crabs
bruh, i got a hy-vee crab commercial i am dying 💀
Reject humanity, progress to crab.
but... how do they die?
Usually they get sick or eaten.

Even evolution wants crabs dead😂
Money money money

Tarantulas also molt pretty much the same way.

so if you solve all that, how long could the crab live for@@joshuakim5240
@@joshuakim5240does this also apply to lobsters? I remember seeing the “lobster god” copypasta a few years ago
@@chuckEcheddarcheese
Yes. This applies to all chitinous animals even, hence why we don't have giant giga insects.
Hermit crabs be like: 🗿
As the legend says : eveything, one day, evolve to be a crab
Thank you.
Imagine your flesh detaching and seperating from your skeleton, thats molting
So it dies like a tarantula;it peels itself
"keeping it safe from predators"
Except against pufferfish which have teeth like a rock crusher.

My Crabs died when i went to the Doctor
@glickflock perhaps it was a result of anxiety
Crabs can feel lonely to the point of anxiety?
About the yeti crab, no it’s not dancing to gather bacteria. They’re making sure the bacteria it’s self has enough oxygen.
... i just learned that crabs eat baby turtles...
Me to
They really eat everything, even their own babies.
And we do it them when they just got out of their old shell and are very squishy. You eat the entire thing. Cooked, obviously.
Yo Mr. Krabs, how many body doubles do you have? Oh wait. They’re shells.
The Futurama reference is appropriate
Great video! I laughed so hard at this part 12:04 lol
Zoidberg is a lobster
The real molting was the friends we lost along the way
the freshwater crayfish I kept either died trying to shed their skin
Is it just me, or did the narrator mispronounce the words "chimera" and "chitin?"
The correct phrase would have been: If you molt, you might die, if you don't, you *WILL* die. As when never molting, death is inevitable.
Can we do a long term study
Keeping a docile crab or lobster in a huge pool
Assisting with moulting and see how large can they grow
So thats why some crabs that are sometimes bought in the market are soft, before, i thought they just have calcium deficiency.
This is like the watchmojo of nature channels
Pretty crazy to think this thing is the peak of evolution
No only the peak of arthropod evolutions. Crocodiles are top tier in my book
Basically crabs are one of the most delicate creatures in the world because they could die by Anything.
So in other words, in perfect conditions a crustacean could be giant kaiju if done properly
It takes a lot of effort to stay alive
With garlic butter and the right blend of seasoning and spices.
