Kelp crabs are definitely charismatic in their own way \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Most kelp crabs don\u2019t get too big\u2014maybe the size of an adult hand. They mainly eat algae, but they also supplement their diet with other invertebrates like mussels, barnacles, bryozoans, etc\u2014especially when algae cover decreases in the winter. <\/p>\n<p>Sea otters love to eat them! So do seabirds like gulls and some fish. One fun fact is kelp crabs, like other crabs, start their lives as tiny, free-swimming larvae.<\/p>\n<p>Welcome to the kelp crab fan club! \ud83e\udd80<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>tinyyellowflowers-blog asked: Hello!
