The World of Crabs
 

This unit contains many amazing photographs and a great deal of content. Many of the photographs were obtained through the Flickr (www.flickr.com) website. In some cases they did not provide full details of their name but I have tried to acknowledge them all.

Unfortunately we have not been able to place contributor details under the images used throughout the unit. We felt this could be confusing and distracting to the young users of the unit and would add clutter to many pages.

On behalf of Coast Action / Coastcare wish to thank the following individuals and organisations for their assistance with "The World of Crabs" unit.
