I had always assumed this was a photoshop.

Since I heard you call it a coconut crab I looked em up on wikipedia and holy shit - those things are crazy. I'm a little surprised I haven't heard more about them until now.

>The animal has developed a special technique to do so: if the coconut is still covered with husk, it will use its claws to rip off strips, always starting from the side with the three germination pores, the group of three small circles found on the outside of the coconut. Once the pores are visible, the crab will bang its pincers on one of them until they break. Afterwards, it will turn around and use the smaller pincers on its other legs to pull out the white flesh of the coconut. Using their strong claws, larger individuals can even break the hard coconut into smaller pieces for easier consumption.
Just wow.

I saw a series of photos once where an ornithologist set out a bunch of bait for some rare birds, but always within an hour a swarm of these fuckers would travel out of the forest and through a field to steal all the bait. It was in broad day light.

>Children sometimes play with coconut crabs by placing some wet grass at an angle on a palm tree that contains a coconut crab. When the animal climbs down, it believes the grass is the ground, releases its grip on the tree, and subsequently falls.
