Caution!! Crabs Crossing



Caution!! Crabs Crossing!!


Every year at the beginning of the wet season, around October or November, the Christmas Island red crab (Gecarcoidea natalis), begins its migration from the forest to the coast to breed.

Although only endemic to Christmas Island and the Cocos Islands in the Indian Ocean, there is estimated to be more than 120 million red crabs on the rain forest floor of Christmas Island(National Geographic). The migration of the crabs is usually synchronised throughout the Island, with the rain providing moist conditions enabling them to make the long and difficult journey.

The mass migration is headed by the males, quickly followed by the females. The crabs spend several painstaking weeks scuttling to the ocean, which can be as far as 9 km away.

In order to mitigate human interference with the migration, road closures and designated “crab crossings” are put in place and local radio stations report on the crabs movements.

SPICES THAT PREVENT CANCER



SPICES THAT PREVENT CANCER

Saffron: 

A natural carotenoid dicarboxylic acid called 'Crocetin' is the primary cancer-fighting element that saffron contains. It not only inhibits the progression of the disease but also decreases the size of the tumour by half,
guaranteeing a complete goodbye to cancer. Though it is the most expensive spice in the world for it is derived from around 250,000 flower stigmas (saffron crocus) that make just about half a kilo, a few saffron threads come loaded with benefits you won't regret paying for. Saffron threads can be used in various ways.
