Baby Crab

Baby Crabs are the most common Cave enemy, appearing in almost all biomes with the exception of the Infected Depths. Aurelian Depths and Ancient Abyss. They serve as cannon fodder and serve no purpose other than being slaughtered by the dozens. They also periodically hatch from Egg Piles.

Description
Baby crabs are young crabs, decapod crustaceans of the infraorder Brachyura. Their carapace is still soft and white due to their young age, and it doesn't offer much protection, which coupled with the crab's small size and very low weight, makes these enemies particularly weak and vulnerable.

Behavior
Even though the Baby Crabs are incredibly weak, they are mindlessly aggressive and will throw themselves at the submarine crew in the hopes of doing damage before their inevitable deaths. Any item that can be swung will kill them in 1 hit. Thusly, the Baby Crabs will rarely pose a threat, but may interfere when you are fighting a more dangerous foe, making it more difficult to safely and quickly dispatch the foe, particularly if you're using a slow weapon that can only hit one enemy at once.
