Dead crab
Some crabs, like the land crab, are terrestrial and breathe well without water, although they still need to keep their gills moist. These crabs can live out of water as long as their gills remain moist. But land crabs die if they are submerged in water. Here you see a land crab that has died for some reason. But the beauty of its body is admirable to God.
