🦀🌊 Baby crabs are starting to return to Christmas Island National Park! After a month drifting at sea, tiny red crabs – just 5 mm across – are beginning their inland march. Only a small number of larvae ever make it to this stage, so whether this year brings a big return or a small one, every baby crab counts. Over the next several days, you may see these tiny travellers crossing roads on their journey to the plateau, where they'll hide and grow for the next few years. 🚗 Please take extra car

The spectacular red crab migration on Christmas Island National Park may be winding down (for now!), but our crustacean pals don't seem to have gotten the message! 🦀 The male and female crabs have both returned to the jungle after mating and spawning, but that doesn't mean the migration is over. 🌴 Instead, we're getting another (smaller) spawning event in December. And, if all goes well, baby crab returns happen roughly four weeks after each spawning. In mid-December, there'll be possible baby

Every year thousands of red crabs use Christmas Islands’s iconic crab bridge to assist them to travel to the coast safely during their annual migration. The team at Parks Australia erect fences of less than a foot high in the lead up to the migration, this fencing funnels the crabs to the bridge ensuring that they get over the road unharmed. The crabs then continue their journey down to the coastal terraces where mating and spawning occurs 🦀 The predicted spawning dates for 2020 are; 11th-13th

Traveling home for Christmas? So are the famous red crabs of Christmas Island! 🦀🎁🦀 In late October, about half of the island's 200 million crabs departed the forest for the coast, where they laid their eggs. After more than a month at sea, the freshly hatched larvae are making their way to land as tiny crustaceans.
