Ecology

Ghost Crabs interact with their environment (the sun, sand, water, air, and moon), the animals (including humans), and plants in their habitat.

A study showed the results that the density of ghost crab burrows on a beach (how many there are per unit of area) shows you how much human impact there is colliding with the animals and plants of that part of the beach.
