DESCRIPTION: Compared to its un-mutated cousin, one of these crabs, if captured and cooked, could feed a family of six for two days (if they like crab meat that is). The crab is supported by six, .5 meter long legs. Its fore claws are a good meter in length, and can cut through thin metal with ease. This variety of crab has retractable eye stalks. When fully extended, they reach 30 CM into the air. Its shell is a deep sea green in color. This mutant attacks by grabbing a target with its fore claws. After it has grabbed its target, it pulls it to its mouth to feed. A rather simple method, but for the crab, it works. The only way a victim can get free of the crabs claw is to destroy the claw. The claw has 25 hp . Giant Crabs are scavengers, eating anything they find on the shorelines of coastal waters. Due to the sheer size of the crab, only a few can find enough food in an area covering several kilometers. More than 4 in an area covering 10 square kilometers will strip the area clear of all available food.

The smaller, weaker members either starve to death, or are cannibalized by the larger, stronger crabs.
