When they grow they drop their shell and grow a new one. It takes some time and that's when they are soft.

The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in "advanced" countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical suffering even in "advanced" countries.

I saw someone on tv that killed one and ate it. He said it's fine most of the time but their meat can be poisonous when they eat certain stuff. He also said that the claws can cut of your fingers. I felt sad for the crab to be killed for a tv survival show, so I skipped the ad break.
