Molting

I've learned something new today.

Crabs are shedding their shells!

Yes, you read it right. I thought only the snakes are shedding their skin. I've learned it through my classmate's poem. Oh well, maybe I was just unaware about it but I was really amused to know that fact so I googled it. And i found out 'molting' is the term for the process. I was really amazed especially when I saw the pictures of the crab really shedding its shell!
