Chilli Crab ... Anyone?

Claude, the gigantic crab, was destined to become chilli crabs, but a twist of fate means he will now be showcased at an aquarium rather
than being served on a platter. Claude was snapped up by a British aquarium worker who agreed to buy him and two other enormous
crustaceans for a whopping £3,000. He had them flown to the UK and they are now in quarantine at the Sea Life Park in Weymouth,
Dorset, before they will go on display. The creatures - the second biggest crab species in the world - are likely to go on display at Sea
Life Parks Weymouth, Birmingham and in Berlin in Germany.
Claude, pictured, weighs a mighty 15lbs (6.8 kg) and measures 15 inches (38cm) wide. When he is fully grown he will weigh a weighty
30lbs and gain an extra three inches.
