The octopus uses its strong, flexible arms to capture crabs, often employing a technique of stealth and ambush. Once it has grasped the crab, the octopus uses its beak, a sharp, hard structure, to puncture the crab's shell and access the meat inside. Additionally, octopuses can inject venom to help subdue their prey, making it easier to consume. After breaking the shell, they extract the soft tissue and eat it.
