Not much chance of them getting protection from our current Congress, since it appears that the crabs are communists.

When I first started watching that vid I was a bit taken aback by the owner's willingness to allow it near the crab. They're pretty fierce creatures and can do a lot of damage to a dog nose! Not to mention the stress for the crab.

Then I read the youtube comments. Turns out the crab was found in their yard some weeks prior to the vid. He'd got toknow the crab and how it moved and responded before he let the dog near it to play. The crab meanwhile seems fairly unconcerned by it all.
