Trash crab

Trash crabs were a hermit crab-like species of crabs that roamed the planet Lanupa, where they scavenged and wore pieces of technological scrap. Trash crabs then were able to communicate, although very limited, with the technology they scavenged; this was because they were capable of mimicking sounds such as basic speech. The human Wim believed this was a sign they were sentient. One gigantic member of the species was Tet'niss. Trash crabs were similar to the scrap crabs of the Outer Rim planet Trionak.
