@foodporn: The Great Red Crab Migration 🦀🦀🦀 Every year around this time on Christmas Island, @Australia, one of the world’s most astonishing wildlife events takes place. As soon as the rainy season begins, millions of red crabs leave the forest and march all the way to the ocean. 🌧️🦀🌊 Their journey has only one purpose: to mate and release their eggs into the sea. Scientists describe this as one of the largest animal migrations on the planet, so massive that roads are closed and special crab bridges are built to protect them. Cars have even adapted, creating ‘crab pushers’, to make sure they don’t drive over them. 🚗 What makes it even more extraordinary is their timing. Red crabs synchronize their movements with the lunar cycle, releasing their eggs on the night of the strongest tides. 🌝 With an estimated 40-50 million crabs moving at the same time, the island turns completely red - attracting thousands of visitors from all around the world. ❤️❤️❤️ And in case you were wondering, Christmas Island Red Crabs are protected wildlife, so harvesting or eating them is illegal. In addition, their meat is minimal, tough, and often bitter due to their diet and high levels of uric acid, which makes them unappealing compared to other crab species. 🤢 #fyp #foryou #crabs #christmasisland #australia
