Catching the Tide

The Pacific Gull is native to the coasts of Australia. It frequently consumes crabs.

The European Green Crab is listed among the World's Worst Invasive Alien Species. Its color varies greatly, from green to brown, gray, or red. This variation has a genetic component, but is largely due to local environmental factors.
