Do baby crabs eat their mother?
Chef's answer
While mothers eating their young is relatively common, the opposite occurs, too: offspring devouring their mothers. Matriphagy, or mother-eating, is found in some insects, spiders, scorpions, and nematode worms. Crab spider mothers provide their young with unfertilized eggs to eat, but it's not enough.
