Crab (Franchise)

Crabs are a food source for dragons in the game, DreamWorks Dragons: Wild Skies.

Biology
Crabs refer to a group of crustaceans known for their large, single pair of pincers. They occur worldwide in a variety of environments - not only sea water, but also fresh water and land. Roughly speaking, they have an ovoid central body and ten legs radiating outward. Their diet depends on the species and can range from algae and bacteria to molluscs and fish. Like other crustaceans, crabs have no internal skeleton, but rather an exoskeleton. As they grow, they must shed this exoskeleton to compensate, and grow a new one.

Function
In DreamWorks Dragons: Wild Skies, Crabs are an item that the player must collect to feed to dragons who favor it as a food.

In actuality, crabs are a popular food item across the world for humans. There is little evidence that crabs comprised a significant part of the historical Vikings' diet. However, as many Vikings utilized whatever sea creatures they had at hand along the coastlines, it is entirely plausible crabs were a known edible item. Two species of crabs are native to the northern seas that Vikings may have come across: the Snow Crab and the Brown Crab.
