Crab Island Location of Christmas Island  Christmas Island rainforest  Red crab  Red crabs begin their march from the forest to the sea, where they will reproduce  During the migration, the island's human inhabitants just have to adapt  There are around 120 million crabs on the march  The crabs navigate the same pathways year after year  For the islanders, encounters with crabs during the migration are just part of island life  Most of the time we just work around the crabs and take them for granted  Red crabs are scavengers  After two weeks of marching, the first wave of crabs reaches the ocean  The weary travellers dip in the ocean to replace body fluids and salts  The weary travellers dip in the ocean to replace body fluids and salts  Aerial view of Christmas Island  Crabs pop up in the most unexpected places  A female crab expels eggs from her brood pouch  The eggs hatch immediately on contact with the water  Baby crabs navigate their way into the rainforest ... and the ants  E-mail to a Friend
