The Yeti Crab

(Kiwa hirsuta)

HABITAT? The bottom of the South Pacific Ocean
DID YOU KNOW?
– It was discovered in 2005 and has been called “the furry lobster.”
– This animal is believed to be blind.
– It gets its name from the long blonde hairs on its legs and arms, which are filled with bacteria.
– Experts aren’t quite sure what the hairs are for, but some believe that the bacteria on them provide food for the crab, or help it filter poisonous materials found in the deep sea.
