Scientists discovered a female three-spot swimming crab that had been trapped inside a floating bottle of Shaoxing cooking wine for at least one to two months. The crab, found off the coast of Sesoko Island, Japan, likely survived by consuming juvenile fish that entered the bottle. Researchers noted that this incident highlights the negative impact of human-generated debris on marine wildlife, as such bottles can persist in the environment for decades and potentially trap other marine organisms.
