Tallon Crab

Tallon Crabs are quadruped crustaceans with two claws. One of their claws is much larger than the other, which is used for hunting and defensive maneuvers. Tallon Crabs generally travel in aggressive and dangerous swarms, though when isolated, they are timid and harmless. It is possible for a hungry mass of Tallon Crabs to consume a much larger life-form in a matter of seconds.

Samus encounters Tallon Crabs on Tallon Overworld on Tallon IV. They swarm at her in the tunnels of the crashed Space Pirate frigate, Orpheon.
