How to use crab in a sentence?

  1. Jennifer Lavers:

    If we were to lose these crab species or they were able to become substantially less abundant, that has implications for sediment turnover. It has implications for forest regeneration and growth. It has implications for the tidiness of our beach and ocean environments because potentially you don't have the vultures coming in and cleaning things up.

  2. Javier Luque:

    Callichimaera perplexa is so unique and strange that it can be considered the platypus of the crab world, usually we think of crabs as big animals with broad carapaces, strong claws, small eyes in long eyestalks, and a small tail tucked under the body. Well, Callichimaera defies all of these' crabby' features and forces a rethink of our definition of what makes a crab a crab.

  5. Yumna Jawad:

    The final output looks like a fancy meal but the input to create the sushi stack is really minimal and so customizable, it reminds me of a California roll with shrimp instead of crab.
