Hazardous Hold
While plenty of folks would not touch one of these enormous crabs with a ten-foot pole, you should know that they are relatively friendly. Max ensured that Mark’s hands had not been scratched, as a tetanus shot would then be advisable. As is the case with most wildlife injuries.

Hazardous Hold
Despite Mark being unharmed, Max was adamant on providing another warning. It seemed that the men had not escaped the crabs’ clutches completely unharmed. What had happened?
Robbers
Max informed the gentleman that Coconut crabs are kleptomaniacs! Max pointed toward Mark’s phone, which was now tightly clamped by a crab claw.

Robbers
With professional sensitivity, Max seized the phone from the unsuspecting robber. Now that the phone was safely back in Mark’s hands, Max explained that Coconut crabs are prone to stealing and snapping discarded items. If you happened to drop something precious in this area, there is a good chance that a Coconut crab would steal and break it.
