The albino crab was spotted by marine biologist Vladimir Burkanov during an actual trip to Tyuleny Island, east of Russia, according to GCB news site.
This yellow-throated crab is very rare and may be rejected by the herd for its difference.
The Burkanov marine biologist calls the yellow crab "The ugly Cran" because of its unique fur color. According to scientists, in the wild animal world, only one of the 100,000 crab trees has golden fur like "Unexpected Upset".
This crab was born less than a month ago and scientists are currently observing the survival of the animal in the herd.
Mr. Burkanov said that up to now, the golden crab has integrated well with other individuals in the herd. "This small animal is well fed and very active, so its mother clearly gave it a lot of milk," he said.
"The other cranes are not paying too much attention to it, it is a worrying attitude. So it seems that something is wrong with him. But the baby crab was not chased or bitten," the biologist added.
Mr. Burkanov added that based on other albino crab cases, the chance for "Uneasy kid" to mature and reproduction is small.
However, he contacted a colleague and discovered that another golden crab that the colleague had taken a photo of had survived.
Biologist Sergey Fomin took a photo of a golden crab in Severo-Zapadnoe on Bering Island in 2017. The animal is two or three years old and has good physique, even though it clearly has poor vision, he said.
Mr. Fomin recently met this golden crab at the same location. "The albino crab is now an adult, about 5-6 years old," he said.
"It is not participating in reproduction this season and is seen in single children's areas. This is perhaps the first recorded case of the survival to adult of an unusually furry northern crab," he added.
