Description: Found six of these large crabs washed up on the beach. They look like the Edible Crab, but I was more interested in what predated them, all were in the same state. I do not eat crab or know how to prepare them so it may be simple and be humans.
But the fact that the main shell is intact, some flesh seem to have been removed through the two small holes on the underside and both claws are missing make me wonder if it is Otters?
