HI can't recall seeing many of those crabs, the island certainly wasn't teeming with them, probably because the early Gannites smashed them with stones and used them for bait!
Also, the mpbw dug up most of the palm/coconut trees and planted non native trees like pine, which the crabs didn't like to nest in, the roots that is, not the branches.
Warmtoast. It wasn't the palmed treed tropical island when I was there, but there were a few coconut trees by the Marine Bar IIRC.
