Introduced to Northern Europe’s shores by the Russians in the 1960s, the Royal Crab has been relentlessly expanding its territory, particularly along the Norwegian coast where it’s methodically colonizing the region.
This invasive species poses a significant threat to local ecosystems, disrupting the delicate balance of marine life. Scientists, deeply concerned about the ecological impact, are closely studying the Royal Crab’s remarkable biology. Their goal is to understand the reasons behind its rapid and aggressive spread.
