Small Crabs are creatures found in all games of the Hungry Shark series (in HSW and HSE) that are only found on land or seabeds. They have low danger rating.

Eating 40 crabs is required to complete the mission "Crab Clearance".

Danger Rating[]

Small crabs have a danger rating of low. They deal a very small amount of damage, and as such, it is nearly impossible to die to one.

Appearance in Hungry Shark World[]

Crabs return in Hungry Shark World. In this game, they come in several different colors. These colors include blue crabs (can be eaten by all sharks), red (requires an S shark or above), spider crabs (require an S shark or above), and purple (requires an M shark or above). They also come in small, medium, and large sizes. Despite this, none of the crabs in Hungry Shark World are as large as the giant crab from Hungry Shark Evolution, although the Giant Crabs in the Sand Shark's final mission is close. Crabs also spawn in the Arctic Ocean and the South China Sea in the form of spider crabs. Crabs in this game tend to be more aggressive, but it is unknown if they deal much damage.

Trivia[]

  • Small crabs resemble a miniature red Giant Crab. However, the small crabs have purple eyes while the giant crab has black ones.
  • Small crabs yield between 1000 points when eaten.
  • When a small crab does damage the player's shark, the damage is still atrociously low. Getting clawed always gives the on-screen accolade 'Nip!'.
  • The crunch noise made when a small crab was eaten used to be identical to other prey, but it was changed so that the bigger crabs made the same sound as the sound of a turtle being eaten, and the smaller crabs would have a unique crunch sound effect. And in previous Hungry Shark games, the crabs would make a scratched metal sound when you were pinched by them.
  • Small crabs are found in different sizes, although there is no change in strength or danger level. However, the amount of points awarded differs.
  • Small crabs rarely spawn out of water. Crabs on land can be seen near the Tiger Shark's spawn point, as well as Skull Island.
  • In HSW, they cannot deal damage, despite the swiping.
  • The HSW version seems to be a Ghost Crab because of its long eyes, while the HSE version appears to be a Deep-Sea Red Crab.
  • Originally, the Museum showed only one crab, then it was changed to three crabs.
  • They tend to spawn in bigger sizes in the Crab Lair.
  • Small crabs in Hungry Shark: Part 3 are colored blue in the Sea of Despair.
