Crabby Commuters - Yellow Morph Black Land Crab Takes Over Cuban Roads on Epic Spring Migration!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this hilarious snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Neil Bowman, we witness the extraordinary sight of a confident adult black land crab boldly crossing a road during its annual spring migration. The vibrant yellow morph of this crustacean stands out against the backdrop of Zapata Peninsula in Matanzas Province, Cuba. As if they were seasoned island explorers, these adventurous crabs embark on an incredible journey each year, traversing roads and defying traffic rules with their sideways scuttle. With their tropical terrestrial habitat and West Indies charm, it's no wonder they've become the unofficial mascots of Caribbean crossings! This photo perfectly captures the essence of nature's whimsy as our little protagonist fearlessly navigates through the hustle and bustle of human activity. Its determined expression seems to say, "Move aside! Crab coming through!". Who knew that even crabs could have such audacious personalities? So next time you find yourself stuck in traffic on a sunny day in Cuba, keep your eyes peeled for these delightful decapods making their way across the road. They may be small but they sure know how to make a big impression!
