I am, frankly, skeptical.

It's that I would think most people wouldn't want to take off of work or school to race crabs, so I cannot help but think that this is one of those “third Saturdays of February” sorts of holidays.
But I consulted bunches of sources on the internet, and every one of them that mentioned Champion Crab Races Day insisted that it is today!
Hermit crabs don't grow their own shell, but instead adopt a mollusk's old, outgrown shell. For example, this hermit crowd has adopted a sea snail's old shell.

Have you ever wondered what a hermit crab looks like outside of its shell? |
