The biggest crab ever discovered, it is said, is now mounted and on exhibition in the Brooklyn Museum of Arts and Sciences. The natural home of this creature is under from 600 to 4,000 feet of water. The crab measures 11 feet in diameter and for the most part it has a very beautiful complexion for a crab ranging from a delicate old rose tint on the top of the carapace and legs to a pale brownish shade on the underside. The two front legs have the usual crab claws, which are big enough to crush a man, but the bthers end in narrow brown hoofs without toes. The eyes on the branches are enormously large and the feelers are as big as garden hose. The crab was taken off the Japanese coast and formed a part of a collection made by Prof. Bashford Dean of Columbia college last year and it was presented to the Brooklyn by Eugene G. Blackford. It took more than a month to mount it. It is supposed that the giant crabs grow to twelve feet in diameter, says the Detroit but the one in Brooklyn is the biggest ever captured. Not many of them are captured not more than ten or twelve a year although the Japanese are fishing over the grounds where they are found all the time. The Japanese fishermen set lines several miles in length, with many hundreds of hooks, which are sunk to the floor of the ocean and left over night. When the lines are hauled in next morning all manner of extraordinary things are found attached, from giant crabs to sea lilies.
