Through the ancient art of Crab Kwon Do, Rappahannock and Chesapeake Bay crabs find both emotional and physical balance.*
This has taken on new importance in the Rappahannock River and Chesapeake Bay, where an overabundance of nutrients threatens the balance of the crabs' world.
I bet you're thinking, aren't nutrients a good thing?
Sure - when they're natural nutrients helping to grow your food or in the yummy crabs you eat. But when rain washes excess nutrients meant for lawns off the land and into the Bay, they become pollution. Which is really bad news for the crabs, and for the people like us who love to eat them.
Want to know how you can help keep those delicious Blue Bay crabs coming? If you have a lawn and don't want to spend this spring taking care of it (or if you just want a chuckle), you should check this out.
And remember: Save the Crabs...Then Eat 'Em.
*OK, so we made up the part about Crab Kwon Do. But everything else is real.
