Crabby Invasion - When Cronius Ruber Takes Over the Canary Islands!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this underwater portrait, we witness the mischievous antics of a swimming crab named Cronius Ruber as it invades the pristine waters of Tenerife in the Canary Islands. With its vibrant red shell and determined gaze, this crustacean has certainly made itself at home in these Atlantic Ocean depths. But don't be fooled by its innocent appearance! This little critter belongs to an invasive species that is causing quite a stir among marine biologists. While native to other parts of the world, Cronius Ruber has found its way into these temperate saltwater havens and is making waves with its voracious appetite and competitive nature. As we marvel at Sergio Hanquet's stunning print, we can't help but wonder what adventures lie beneath those oceanic surfaces. Will Cronius continue to thrive or will it face resistance from other inhabitants? Only time will tell! So next time you find yourself exploring the beautiful shores of Tenerife, keep an eye out for our cheeky swimming crab friend. And remember, while it may be an unwelcome guest in these parts, there's no denying that Cronius Ruber adds a splash of excitement to our aquatic ecosystems!
