The red crab migration 🦀 Every year at the start of the wet season, millions of red crabs migrate from the rainforest to the shores of Christmas Island to mate in one of nature’s most amazing spectacles. The males dig dens for the females to occupy with the eggs. After 12 or 13 days of brooding the eggs in the den, female red crabs make a journey to the sea and release them in the water. When they are released, they almost instantly hatch. #EarthCapture by @thewonderfullylost . . . . #RedCrab #ChristmasIsland #Australia
