Snip Snap @daily-crabbys - Tumblr Blog

I don't like mixing my socials, but hey! Support me financially!

This blog is not currently accepting crabs! Sorry.

~~~~~

I post roughly between 2-3pm MDT/MST. I may post sooner or later depending on what im doing in the moment, but I do intend to post! Please be patient with me about this, I am quite busy and also forgetful, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to work post queue ^^"!

On Fridays, our fact days, and Sundays, our submission days, I will post around the same time, though it may fluctuate!

Saturdays are going to be a break day for me! A crabbath(crab sabbath) if you will. A break once a week is good for my mental health and very important, even if it may not seem like it.

~~~~~

I love interacting with people, so feel free to communicate with me! Preferably through DMs so that my blog is not flooded with too many un-crab related posts, but however you wish to make contact is alright! It doesn't need to be crab related, I just enjoy holding a conversation! It is my enrichment :)

I knew comments wouldn't let me down.

#not crab posting on technicality

i know i dont need to explain where ive been but i know i just keep disappearing all the time so i thought id give some explanation:

aside from general burnout of running a daily blog i also acquired a job a few months ago and its been beating my ass real hard. burnout from the blog mixed with burnout from employment is a deadly combination and i kept trying to come back and it did NOT work out lmao

#daily-crabbys #not crab posting #i was already suffering from undiagnosed mental issues(still undiagnosed but its worth bringing up)#but that on top of physical issues that have only gotten worse with my job are killing me in ways i didnt know were physically possible #going back to physical therapy soon though so. thatll be fun. hopefully it helps a bunch #its not anyones business but my medical ossues have been piling hard #its honestly a miracle im able to function in any capacity but here we are lmfaooooo #also dont worry abt me too much im mostly just being dramatic. mostly. smiles smiles

On April 16th 2025 the US federal government has proposed to change the interpretation of the endangered species act so that it no longer protects habitat.

This is open for public comment until the end of May 19th. Please comment and make your voice heard.

Wildlife need their habitat. If the ESA redefines harm so that habitat is no longer protected, the implications for wildlife would be catastrophic.

GOOD NEWS FOR CRAB FANS EVERYWHERE

Please click through and read the article. It just keeps getting better and better.

Because the crabs are raised in a lab, they don’t have any experience with predators. So before putting them onto the reef, Spadaro and his team may have to condition them to fear things like octopuses, snappers, and groupers. One way to do this is by using puppets modeled after predators. By putting these puppets in the tanks while poking at the crabs, the crabs learn to move away from the threat. Several months ago, Mote partnered with a local elementary school and had students craft hand puppets, modeled after crab predators, to use in fear conditioning. (Fortunately, the crabs don’t have great vision.)
