Its annual spawning produces millions of eggs that are the lifeline for a tiny... bird, the red knot. But horseshoe crab numbers are plummeting, and the pyramid depending on this age-old creature is about to come crashing down. (50:44)

This video segment from Between the Lions is a non-fiction live-action segment about what life would be like "if you were a spider crab." The segment goes through some shelled animals but then focuses on spider crabs. Spider crabs try hard to hide th...emselves. They live in seagrass on the edge of the ocean, squeezing among the rocks. They are masters of disguise; they stick things to the prickly hairs on their shell to keep them hidden. When spider crabs outgrow their shell, they grow another one. Spider crabs must continually hide from seagulls. This video segment provides a resource for Text Comprehension. (1:10)

This short video gives excellent real life, close up footage of copulation of a Common Shore Crab and egg mass. As its name suggests, the common shore crab is one of the most common crabs on the British shore. This species is usually dark green in co...lor, although young individuals may have whitish blotches. The carapace of the common shore crab is wider than it is long, and the first pair of walking limbs ('pereopods') have pincers. This is a great resource to help build background knowledge and to help make real world connections between nature and the classroom. (0:35)
