Such a beautiful day…

Written By Angela Sayre

Today was amazing outside, a breezy 75 degrees, and boy were the hermits active today! I wish I could share it with you all.

One of our goals as a non-profit is to set up a live camera feed. It’s going to take some research.

Today I got to watch a pretty large hermit switch shells off and on. He was pretty picky, but eventually settled on a beautiful green shell donated by Amber from Crabitude. Other hermits were lining up waiting to take his left over shell, yes they really do that!!!

Provide awareness of the native wild hermit crabs of the Florida Keys. Bring attention to the housing shortage of hermit crabs due to pollution and the collection of seashells by humans. Educate the public on the capture and abuse of wild hermit crabs for the pet trade. Help end the sale of wild-caught hermit crabs and preserve populations of wild hermit crabs and the lands they inhabit.
