Surprised to find this shell inhabited by a hermit crab. The crab appeared to have little (though some) movement and thus am guessing that it was ill or dying. Nudging brought it out of its shell, but there was none of the typical scurrying about and it was in the same position on my walk back. Looking pretty vulnerable...but at least it had some defense from the elements in its shell home. 3rd Ave N & Gulf of Mexico, Naples, FL
