    I love the little factoid of hermit crabs finding shells that are too big for them, and rather than leave they form a line in ascending order of shell size. Once one comes along that is big enough for that shell, the next smallest will take the first's old shell, all the way down the line until the small one that got there first gets a new, perfectly sized shell.

    Back when I was doing my first play as a human, we actually had two hermit crabs in our party. They provided a small morale boost and made our base look cooler, but unfortunately got a game over fairly early. I wouldn't mind hermit crabs making a comeback as party members for humans, as decorating their armor was a fun minigame and it was possible to earn currency from trading the finished product. The amount of trash reaching the ocean servers is truly disheartening, and I wish more humans would take the time to clean their messes up, as failing to do so only brings down the quality of the game for themselves and everyone else, and frankly I'm not sure how much more the engine and programming can handle before all this waste make the game functionally unplayable for everyone.

    The crab group of animals have specialized into surviving and have adapted to several harsh environments.
    Will you do a video on European Badgers? They pass down burrows to future generations, have designated latrine areas, and they replace bedding.
    They also bury their dead and will cooperatively carry it outside to bury it when it dies inside the burrow.
    They also share their burrow with rabbits, one of their food sources.

Despite being slow they can shoot robot green spy birds using their teeth and long neck. Their problem making them low tier is how they only spawn in the mega zoo and can barley get XP and evolved the ability to gain XP with their radio waves irradiating local animals without robotic parts like the primal orangutan which hasn’t gotten into making robot expansions yet as they have a lower intelligence than humans. Over all the cyber blue giraffe is a solid C tier as it can climb to high A if they can not spawn in zoos only.

    If anyone ever gets hermit crabs just know they're a lot to take care off, they require specific humidity and temperature, 6 inches of specialized substrate, a varied diet, at least 20 gallons of space, and a good amount of unpainted shells to choose from. It's also good that they have fresh non-chlorinated water and salt water.

      I remember when I was a kid there was a kiosk at the Mall of America that would sell Hermit Crabs with little plastic pet carriers and a small habitat. At the time it was the coolest thing ever, but looking back on it those cages were hardly “habitats”. Luckily they aren’t sold there anymore

Avocados tried that with giant sloths and the only reason they didn't lose all viability when the sloth was banned is because humans had started using them too.

      Agreed with saltwater tanks in general. I'm from New England and I went to a vocational highschool, with Environmental Science as my trade. We had freshwater, saltwater and semi-aquatic tanks. My favorite tanks was one of the saltwater ones that had a variety of creatures: a few anemones, a few small saltwater fish, a few crabs & hermit crabs and one small ground dwelling fish. The tank was big enough to host them all. We also had a toad I found in my yard that we put in one of the amphibian tanks and we named it Stoner Kevin.
