I wanna make a small clarification for anyone not particularly versed in Biology. The clam doesn’t need to be dead to be pried open like this. Clams are generally really strong but they have a specific weakness: they have muscles which close and open their shells called Adductor Muscles. College Biology courses actually have this as one of their first dissection assignments. You don’t need to be super strong to open a clam, just smart enough to cut the adductor muscles. You can see the crab searching the clam shell for a small opening, and you can see the clam breathing through the valve opening in the side, which the crab shoves its claw into to pry it just slightly open, like jamming a knife into it not just to pry it but also as a wedge while the clam still can clamp shut. Once the crab has its claw in the clam is dead to rights while the crab takes its sweet time having some quick nibbles on the pieces it can pick out. Then the crab really intelligently shoves its other claw in through the wedged opening to cut anything it can, just trying to kill the thing and eat it at the same time like a mantis eating a still living bug. Isn’t nature fucking incredible?

I'm from the gulf coast but moved away, and haven't seen a blue crab in about 5 years. Thanks. These guys were EVERYWHERE back home, but overfishing made them smaller. I had a really pull on my crab basket and pulled up a dinner plate sized blue crab. I took it home to show it off, then let it go. It was too wide to fit in a 10 gallon bucket. I did not have the heart to hurt it, and let it go. People later told me before everyone overfished, they would often see them that size.

Very interesting, I didn't know crabs ate clams that way. No wonder clams like to be buried. I used to live in Central America and once a year the red land crabs come out to mate. The streets get covered, yards are full of crabs, and they eat a lot of stuff. Also the ones that get smashed on the road every night really truly stink later. And the live ones eat the dead. And the locals say they're no good to eat unfortunately. So they're just a pain. But if you could get one or a few in a terrarium or vivarium they should be cool to watch. I didn't mind the random ones we saw during the year but when they came out to mate from the jungle to the Pacific Coast it got crazy. Those crabs are red, purple, and orange all on one animal. On the Caribbean side I saw one land crab with the same shape and size. I don't know if they come out in hords like the Pacific side, I was only there a week.

2.8 millions views in one month from just a crab eating a clam. Lets keep our oceans healthy to keep providing for these amazing creatures.

The wild part is that the clams eyes are watching all of this happening in real time, just watching itself get scooped out of the shell.

The clam is not alive. Clam was bought from the grocery store already frozen

Im really glad to hear that. The 1st thing my brain went to is this would be horrifying for the clam if it was alive

Really cool! Amazing how perfectly adapted this little guy’s claws are for opening clams! As a human, it’s handy to know that if I’m ever marooned on an island, I can probably get clams open by using a sharp broken shell to wedge the clam open…

Or you could find a pet crab and get it to open your clams for you. You get dinner and some company, and the crab gets all the clams it can eat

That's cool how you let the crab open the clam itself instead of opening it for them.
