Wow! That's cool. A few years ago, about two, I flew to Maryland with my family to visit my aunt. There is seriously tons of sand crabs! They're so easy to find. We also call them sea ticks and sand fleas, but same thing. We'd go to the beach there every day with my aunt, and you can just put your hand down in the sand and scoop up, and there'd be atleast eight at the most! They bury so fast, we'd have to be quick tho grab them! They don't pinch or bite of hurt in any way, they only tickle your hand. We'd put it in a bucket with sand and collect tons of them over a course of an hour, then, when a person is passing, dump them all out! It'd freak them out so much. It's fun watching them bury, also. How do they do it so fast? I don't know, but they're really cool, harmless creatures!
Cookie Crumblez When we lived in N.C. growing up, I used to catch them temporarily when at the beach. They would squeeze between your fingers, kinda like Japanese beetles do when you catch them, and they are powerful diggers.
Used to catch them all the time as a kid at the beaches in Malibu. You can just scoop the sand as the waves go back out and get a ton in your hand. I remember I caught some giant ones that were about the size of a small bird.
I used to catch those when I was younger before I even knew what it is lol. But I took them by hand right out of the sand then put them back and watched them hide again 😂 it was in the united arab emirates they were there too Btw sorry for any spelling mistakes
@HAWAIIAN BEASTS Yep. The ones in this video are the good kind, I guess. I used to see them all the time in Florida as a small child. My grandfather used to use them as fish bait.
Jesus VasPin about a good 10 minute walking distance from the pier my boyfriend's friends said they saw some crabs and we looked and they were tiny so I looked them up, now I find it hard and gross to go to the beach 😂
Bro it is easy. Just scope up some sand from the beach in a bucket. I dont know where you live but it works here in Florida and Georgia. Never caught a big one or an adult before though.
