I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

Now is a good time to turn off video auto play.
Also just a friendly PSA that you are under no obligation to watch videos of horrific or gruesome events just because they appear in your feed. Sharing this because I'm familiar with the feeling of watching something without really thinking about it and then immediately regretting it.
