    Wild Thailand
    Go beyond Thailand's beaches. Wild Thailand reveals a sacred kingdom of awe-inspiring beauty. It takes in the towering limestone cliffs, the paddy fields, the hidden temples and the teeming city of Bangkok, before visiting the forests of the north. Each episode is packed with wildlife. While full moon parties get underway on the beaches of Ko Pha-Ngan, a dazzling light show takes place on the island's reefs. In Bangkok, we meet the animals that have made this urban environment their home.
    Welcome to BBC EARTH! The world is an amazing place full of stories, beauty and natural wonder. Here you'll find 50 years worth of entertaining and thought-provoking natural history content. Dramatic, rare, and exclusive, nature doesn't get more exciting than this.

      I'm not talking about adaption over generations. Their abdomens naturally slightly change to the container they are in. They have found hermit crabs with straight abdomens instead of curled that used bamboo shoots. the hermit crab association has confirmed that their abdomen can change shapes in different containers.
