Hermit Crab, Camper Trailer

Hermit crabs are indicator species of beach and coastal health, threatened by habitat loss, shell scarcity, pollution, and ocean acidification, which dissolves the calcium carbonate shells they depend on.

Shell markets have collapsed. What's left gets hoarded by collectors or ground into sand by warming seas. So this hermit crab did what any creature does when priced out, found what nobody wanted, and made it work. A camper trailer with wheels, walls, and the freedom to relocate when the beach gets overrun by glampers.
