Tool use by New World Halichoeres wrasses https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00338-025-02633-w
"#Wrasses use hard surfaces, also called 'anvils,' to crack open hard-shelled prey such as #crabs and #mollusks... researchers gathered 16 new observations across five species of #Halichoeres wrasses... suggest the behavior is far more common than previously thought."

Give it time, carcinization is coming.

"The Singapore freshwater crab (Johora singaporensis) was first bred by researchers from the National Parks Board (NParks) in a laboratory and some were introduced into a stream in Bukit Batok in 2018.
Now, these released crabs have successfully established a population of their own, NParks told The Straits Times on Feb 11."
The Straits Times · Endangered Singapore freshwater crab, released in 2018, now reproducing in the wildGlobal review of freshwater species finds a quarter of them are threatened with extinction. Read more at straitstimes.com.

Preserving Asian horseshoe crab populations through targeted conservation strategies

phys.orgPreserving Asian horseshoe crab populations through targeted conservation strategiesHorseshoe crabs are often referred to as the "living fossils" of our planet—the four known species, including three in Asia and one in North America, remain nearly identical to their ancient relatives from hundreds of millions of years ago.
Green staghorn coral may be more likely to survive ocean warming if crabs are around https://phys.org/news/2025-02-green-staghorn-coral-survive-ocean.html
"predation by #starfish led to wounds that bled mucus, which in turn attracted the hoof-clawed #crab... the #crabs fed on the mucus but did not harm the coral... they also fed on nearby #seaweed, typically the vectors for infectious #bacteria, which led to infection prevention in the #corals... coral that were protected by the crabs were 60% less likely to suffer tissue loss"
