The hermit crab is a small crustacean known for inhabiting empty shells to protect its soft abdomen. Unlike true crabs, it has a long, spiraled body and relies on finding and switching shells as it grows. Hermit crabs are social, often living in groups, and can be found in both marine and terrestrial environments. They are omnivorous scavengers, feeding on plant and animal matter, and play an important role in cleaning their ecosystems.
