Most have forgotten about the legendary Louisbourg Ground Crab. Not at all like Punxatawney Phil or Peter or whatever his name is, the Louisbourg Ground Crab is a magical crustacean, Chionoecetes bairdi, that rises from the depths to make prognostications about the coming Crab Festival XXI. The first week of April is rumoured to be the first appearance of the Louisbourg Ground Crab, and as soon as he make his appearance, we will have video and our predictions for Crab Fest XXI.

Seriously. He does that.
