Why would anyone stop and take a picture. This is the kind of thing people see then imediatly turn around and walk the other way quietly so it doesnt eat them

So it's like a crab-roach. Imagine that thing running across the floor when you are on a midnight snack run to the fridge. It makes my skin crawl.

I can't stop screaming inside. o_o

Now I feel nervous about letting my feet touch the floor, even though I don't live where they do and probably never will.

They are tasty!! They yield plenty of sweet nutty meat. Unfortunately most places that they live, people have knocked the population way back due to their fantastic taste. They move so slow that they aren't really scary. Very cool animal.

I'm amazed no one else had the thought after seeing the ginormous crab that considering the size of that beast...the trashcan hasn't tipped over. O_O

Actually, I think Anthony Bourdain ate one on recent "No Reservations." Since they live off of coconuts, they taste coconuty.

But if they live off of people's garbage, I wouldn't want to eat it.

My only question is: how does one cook it?

they have a rudimentary lung (that works when air blows through it as opposed to inhaling) and they store up coconut fat in a gland...which is pretty tasty. you can't eat them anymore...they're protected. they are strong enough to use those claws to open coconuts, which is not a trivial thing.

Knowing those things are out there lumbering around makes my universe just that much darker and more frightening ...
