Here's what I find many times in my scoop after digging in the mud at low tide ... this one got away..

One time , unfortunately I dug with my scoop and a crab scurried out from the hole that I had dug in the mud, but he was missing a limb and was hobbling to get to a safe place in the water...I realized that I had severed his little leg with my scoop..I felt sooooooooo bad..but there was nothing I could do...I tried to move him to safety, but then he was so tired from trying to walk that he just stopped walking and died right there in front of me...I still feel so bad when I think about that crab ...but there was no way to avoid it..I never saw him under the mud..
thanks for reading this post.

You just do not look like a crab KILLER to me, He was just playing dead hoping you would get the heck away from him. lol

I also know that there are a lot of people who like hunting, and that's fine with me as long as its done in a responsible manner. I tried it once, I shot a rabbit like 30 years ago and I felt so bad I never did it again. I guess if I needed to hunt to survive then it wouldnt bug me so much, but there it is.
