All about the crab

The crab is one of the fish and sea life in our Animal Kingdom. You can find it in beaches and rock pools, and it eats almost anything it can find. It scuttles sideways. This page is a good fit for ages 3 to 8 (Preschool to 3rd Grade), and Buzzby can read it out loud.

Is the crab one of the fish and sea life?

Yes. Fish breathe through gills and most are covered in scales. The ocean is home to many other amazing creatures too.
