blue crab sex mystery.

an extremely rare dual-gender crab was caught in the Chesapeake bay (some time ago). how did the waterman who caught this crab know that it was a bilateral gynandromorph? watermen apparently conducted their own experiment by throwing the gynandromorph into a tank with a female crab. the confused crustacean first began mating as a male and then changed its mind and ate the female.
