CASE 3. Mobile Hungry Crabs in Sicily

After hitching a ride on cargo ships, blue crabs are arriving on the Sicilian coast. Noted for their appetite, their presence mobilizes concerns about the damage they have caused to biodiversity elsewhere, but these newcomers could be a valuable bycatch for local fishers.
