[@anthonyd507]

I was always taught to only take one claw from a stone crab. Yes it’s legal to take both. But statistics show by leaving one, the crab is very very likely to survive to grow another. As the can defend themselves with just one. Years ago I was a tropical invertebrate ecologist, and I just ask that folks take one and leave the other. In my opinion it’s a great idea, as even though you’re throwing a live crab back, it’s odds of survival aren’t very high with no claws.

[@portoitalian9263]

Thank you

[@AD-ny3gv]

Same. I guess when regular people go out it's more like how many claws do you need at the end of the day and once you hit your quota turn them lose with an extra claw. At least they're going back into the water either way.

[@mtt8209]

I was coming to say the same thing. How will the crab survive? It takes months for the claws to grow back. Taking both claws you are still killing them. I

Me personally I cant ever take both claws, I know the law says you can but I just feel bad leaving them with no claws. I do love Stonies, great video Gabe.

It wouldn't be sustainable. Stone crabs do not have the numbers as other species of crabs.

[@ChefDJ1689]

I seen someone say it's better to take both so the crab won't try to fight with one claw

@@philipfish50 fair point but they will regen after a few molt cycles, and the female will likely be laying eggs soon and it doesn't really have many predators so it should be okay. It can survive on bottom-feeding and doesn't require that much food if it's not actively growing. Though obv not enough research done on how these fair without both claws.

Taking both claws makes the crab a scavenger and greatly decreases its survivability in the wild. Try leaving a claw every once in a while.

[@iamchris318]

Actually studies show that this is not true. The crab knows that it is defenseless when it has no claws and will bury itself until regenerated. With one claw or still thinks that it can defend itself.
