This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.
A tiny shelled ocean creature with many long legs. It has two large pincers on its front limbs.

Crabs are multi-legged critters found on beaches, usually running away from any threats. Butchering them yields a surprisingly large amount of meat - despite being described as "tiny", they are actually significantly larger than adult cats. All crabs possess Legendary skill in climbing as well as blue-colored blood.

Note that, despite their description, they do not yield a shell when butchered. Unlike most animals, they cannot be trained. Also, unlike crabs in real life, they do not lay eggs and instead give live birth.

Some dwarves like crabs for their pincers and their sideways walk.

Admired for its sideways walk.
