i’m sure people know this, but for those of you who don’t, alligators and crocodiles (this is a gator) have some of the most powerful jaws on earth—if they’re biting down. their muscles are made to clamp and hold while its body twists, taking down its prey and (typically) drowning it. however, they have next to no opening power, meaning this crab’s claw has rendered this gator almost powerless
crab: shhhh……shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh……..i am speaking about of Me now
Crabs gotta let go sooner or later.
And by then the gator will have gotten to known the crab on a personal level. The crab will relate his stories of times caught up in the tides, of getting caught in a crabbing cage and slipping loose at the last minute, of dropping his youngest child off at school for the first time. The gator understands life for the smaller sea critters and works to be a friend to the crab.
