The slowest moving animal is a crab found in the Red Sea. It travels with an average speed of 5.7 Km/year How long will it take this animal to travel 100 km?

Time = distance / speed

Time = (100 km) / (5.7 km/yr)

Time = 17.5 years

If this is true, then it's not likely that any member of the species has ever traveled 100 km in its lifetime. Weird !
