Hermit Crab in decorated shell

Description

Hermit crabs have no real shell of their own, so they use the discarded shells of other animals for protection, sometimes they even use trash...

One of a group of very old pics I found and scanned today

Some people actually keep them as pets, though I wouldn't know how to take care of one...
