Crab Eating a Shrimp
Mmmm! We observed this crab snacking on a shrimp during Dive 07 of the Seascape Alaska 3 expedition at a depth of 768 meters (2,120 feet). The crab was kind of a sloppy eater and small amphipods were seen feeding on pieces of shrimp that fell to the seafloor. Everyone has to eat, and in the deep ocean where food is often scarce, nothing goes to waste!
