This is such a cool video about changing tides and racoons seeking food - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sE--OQyzTNs

"It's worth a try," Wraen replied, leaving the task for Chanel to fulfill, while she got up and went to explore, what goods were hiding in other tidepools. She slipped on the brownish-green mess that had been sea-weeds underwater few times and cut a pawpad on a rock, covered by numerous little mussels. They smelled something akin to food, but the rims of their shells were very sharp and Wraen did not want to risk getting another injury. 

In she plowed through a mesh of underwater plants and picked out a small fish. After feasting on such for weeks, it was not something her stomach desired much, but she ate it anyway. Then - suddenly - she became still and very alert. There, between rocks she had caught sight of slight movement and a moment later a little crab emerged. When Wraen leaned closer to sniff, it met her black nose with a menacing click with it's claws. Therefore the scavenger decided to utilize a different plan and hit it with a paw, turning it upside down and immobilizing it for a while.

She picked the little chap by one of it's claws and trotted back to show it to her pupil. Wraen dropped it in the sand and pinned it to the ground with one of her paws. "Ever met crabs?" she asked, her eyes alight with amusement. "Chanel - Mr.Crab. Mr.Crab - Chanel," she introduced them.
