Move? (UPDATED)
[edit]After further reading, I've realized my move proposition was folly. Sacculina carcini is *A* species that does the things discussed on the page, and the most cited, but the others species given actually exihibit the same behavior. I am re-instating the previous page name (and undoing my erroneous edits) with apologies. I'm leaving the redirect of "Sacculina carcini" to this page for now though, so it'll bounce people who read about that particular critter in this direction. That can change if someone sees the need to write a page about carcini specifically. -Vianello (talk) 07:16, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Isn't there something odd about this, unless crabs are hermaphrodytic?
Surely a female crab will not have male genitalia, so will then not be capable of being castrated? Intrigued! David Martland 21:30 Dec 14, 2002 (UTC)

Perhaps something about how it takes control of the crabs brain, basicly turning it into a zombie? Soupisgoodfood 07:54, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
For what it's worth, CNN.com published an article that in part covers S. carcini, and it speaks a little more to the "zombifying" effect: http://www.cnn.com/2007/LIVING/personal/08/31/houseguests.hell/ Dave 18:46, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
