With its sturdy shell and powerful claws, the crab is one of the most familiar inhabitants of beaches and rocky shores. It is often seen moving sideways, a characteristic that makes it easily recognizable.
Surprisingly, crabs have ten legs, two of which are transformed into claws that they use for feeding, defense, and communication. They are capable of regenerating a lost leg over time—a remarkable adaptation. Omnivores, they feed on both algae and small marine animals, playing an essential role in the balance of coastal ecosystems. There are several thousand species of crabs worldwide, from the tiniest to the largest.
This Papo figurine faithfully recreates the crab: detailed shell, articulated claws and realistic silhouette. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent stories by the sea or educate children about the diversity of coastal life.

Once Upon a Time There was Papo
