Abstract	Although the cause of death of both the sea hare and ray in the two featured incidents could not be determined, it seems plausible that they were captured and killed by the crabs as there were no signs of decomposition or large chunks of tissue missing from either of the two victims. Crabs and lobsters are known to feed on sea hares, which in defence, will secrete purple ink that interferes with the chemoreceptors of their would-be predators (Kamio et. al., 2010 and Love-Chezem et. al., 2013). In contrast, a crab killing and eating a ray might seem unusual, especially since crabs often fall prey to rays. The thunder crab is also recorded to prey on molluscs (Ling, 2008). This may indicate that it is an opportunistic feeder on a wide variety of animal prey.
