Do you still eat crabs? Is it possible to deprive these handsome men of life?
Nature is a cunning inventor who constantly surprises and amazes us. Agree, there are so many beautiful things in the world that you can not even count.
But today we are talking about beings who have never attracted much attention, because they were ordinary and unremarkable. After all, it was originally conceived by nature. It's crabs. They mostly live in water and move around the bottom or anemones where they live. And their shell - strong and durable - protects them from predators. With the help of it, they deftly hide among the stones of the same color. But in our selection of nature decided to play a trick and radically change the color of the shell - and you know, it was learned simply smart!
