Crustaceans are organisms living under the ocean/sea. Mostly they're shells and snails, or if you've ever seen a whale, crustaceans are the weird white or green things that live on the skin of the whale. They don't hurt the whale, the just live on it.

Crustaceans are a type of arthropod. Crustaceans are animals like lobsters, crabs, and crayfish. Crustaceans have two pairs of antennae and two pairs of maxillae and eat using mandibles. They are often biramous, meaning their legs bend in two places. They have exoskeletons.

Crustaceans are arthropods of the mainly aquatic class Crustacea, typically having a carapace hardened with lime, and include lobsters, crabs, shrimps, woodlice, barnacles, cope, and water fleas.

The exoskeleton of a crustacean is sometimes a protection from predators.

The larger crustaceans (lobster, crab, shrimp) are harvested for human consumption in many areas of the world.
