Recently, several Australian families decided to relax together away from the noise and went to Christmas Island.
The vacationers set up a comfortable camp, prepared meals and enjoyed socializing. When it got dark, strange and frightening sounds began to reach them.
Suddenly, people saw many giant crabs in the darkness. It should be noted right away that none of the picnic participants were injured.
Despite the fact that crabs often climb palm trees and sometimes behave aggressively, they do not represent any danger to humans. At the same time, they are fond of hunting small animals and birds.
The terrifying-looking creatures are always hungry and have a good sense of smell.
They quickly reach the food source. This may explain their sudden and instantaneous appearance near the vacationers’ camp.
The calm seen in the family’s photos is due to the fact that these people have already been to these places and encountered huge crabs.
Although this time everyone was shocked by the amount of shellfish.
At the same time, the animals behaved quite boldly, climbed onto the table and climbed over household things.
However, they were not prepared for children to pick them up and play with them.
The initiative of the fearless children contributed to the escape of the crabs from the camp.
The pleasant evening continued, but for safety reasons it was still decided to rearrange the tents away from this place.
Experienced specialists explained that the vacationing families were lucky, since in reality the crabs caught in the photos are quite small.
An attack by a large individual with powerful claws could lead to serious consequences. Furthermore, the smell of food could attract not only dozens, but even hundreds of crabs.
One of the tourists said that the hungry crabs stayed around the tents all night and made sounds.
