I always find the nature at the end of the showing relaxing.

[@donnaedwards2197]

Two thumbs up! I like all your Nature videos. My favorite part of the show.

[@janiedoe264]

I would have to agree with you.

[@kawaiijiaolangchan546]

I used to spend hours at the dock at my nana's playing with the resident fiddler crabs. They were always so funny, and they'd shake those disproportionately large claws at me when I'd try to catch them.

[@seanluve]

Didnt know crabs eat sand🤓

[@calamari.jaksun8914]

They don't eat sand, they eat what is it the sand. Algae, bacteria, microbes, basically anything organic and then leave behind a ball of clean sand.

[@PonandCon9025]

Random fact: There is an enemy in Pikmin 3 based off the Fiddler Crabs, called the Peckish Aristocrab

me: LET THEM HAVE PRIVACY

[@docducttape9270]

These make really good bait. I used to catch them and use them to catch sheepshead off the jetties

[@yellowgooseduck3019]

unfortunately some of them are sand bubbler crabs, this is a kid here.

[@marthadearagon3394]

what are they doing?

[@biggawinnacrapsa3870]

What they're doing can best be ascertained by listening to the song 'Fiddle About' by the Who.

[@dan8085]

...

[@johnbernard17]

Can you eat fiddler crabs? 🤔

[@JSalonsky]

Well they only eat sand, would you ascertain that is good eating ? 🧐

[@kawaiijiaolangchan546]

Why would you want to eat these adorable little creatures

[@johnbernard17]

@@kawaiijiaolangchan546 Because I love to eat sea food a lot. But I already found out that they're edible and you can eat them for sure. Yummy! 😋
