PETA Pushes Robot Crabs for Ocean City | Newark News

PETA’s making waves in Ocean City, demanding the city ditch live hermit crab races and the Miss Crustacean pageant—arguing these events exploit crabs by ripping them from their homes and failing to provide proper care. Instead, they’re pitching robot crabs, crab-walk relays, and eco-themed pageants to keep the fun while protecting marine life. The city hasn’t responded yet, but the events are still scheduled for August 19th—watch this space as Ocean City weighs tradition against animal welfare.
