Blue crab
Callinectus sapidus
Rathburn, 1885
Description:
There are many members to this genus. This is the Atlantic blue crab, the largest of them, when adult. The lateral teeth are also larger, which are somewhat narrow and sharply pointed. Between the eyes are two median teeth. The last walking legs have the last segment enlarged to paddles, which are used for swimming.
The color is grayish or bluish green with red on the spines.
Size: carapace up to 18 cm wide.
Habitat:
This species and many of this genus lives on muddy and sandy bottoms in the shallower regions.
Depth: ranges from 2 m down to 16 m.
Distribution:
Common all throughout the Caribbean, but favored the Atlantic side of the region. Other species of the genus favor the Tropical regions.
Remarks:
Can react aggresively to divers by standing on its rear legs and waving its claws.
Doesn't the one in the ride wave his claws aggressively while staning on it's hind legs?

The only thing I need to know is did the crab do it?

His rebellious streak had to come out at some point, I mean he is stuck in POTC day in and day out...

Yes. Very Much so.
I think I saw the crab in the unemployment line.

This was probably mentioned already, but I noticed last week on Splash Mountain that Brer Rabbit is no longer on the handcar over the passage to the double drop. That was my favorite part, and I was looking forward to seeing it after the refurbishment. Alas, he was not there.

Wednesday before Thanksgiving. That's what I heard. Also I came here just now because I saw a rumor about mermaids coming to PotC. Anyone know if it's true? I hope it is but I can only picture two places for 'em, the begining (like having little tails and shadows swimming around in the water) or after the drop (full AA on land or same as beginning). Thoughts?

They could add the light tower in the battle area.
