Sally Lightfoot Crab

Sally Lightfoot crabs eat primarily red and green algae, but are omnivores that clean beaches of much natural refuse, such as animal droppings and egg shells. They also eat bird chicks and turtle young when they can. They are famous for their ability to cling to a rock in crashing waves and evade would-be human predators.
