Crustaceans are found all across Middle-earth.
They will often fight if threatened, providing a warning for you to back away before they attack. Not all are hostile, while others attack on sight.
Types of Crustaceans include the subterranean crabs of Gundabad known as Ukhrâsh, the Great Crabs and Hunter Crabs of Umbar, and the Giant Scorpions of Shagâna, which the locals refer to as the Usan-kûni (the latter would be more accurately described as arachnids but are defined as Crustaceans by adventurers for taxonomic purposes).
