Abstract
Land crabs are a very popular food in Palau. Women and children collect the crabs in large numbers as they emerge from their burrows in the forest in the late afternoons. Some land crabs migrate to the sea to release their eggs around the full moon. Others stay closer to the forest. In Peleliu, an island at the edge of Palau’s southern lagoon, land crabs are an important resource. Peleliu crabs are sold in markets and restaurants around Palau, and are common delicacies on plates served at local customs.
