Study siteSocial hermit crabs (Coenobita compressus) were studied in Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica, at a long-term field site (Osa Conservation’s Piro Biological Station), where the population has been under study since 200817. Experiments were carried out from January to March 2019 at the beach-forest interface (Fig. 1A), an area where ‘fission–fusion’ social groupings30 continuously form and dissolve31 and where free-roaming individuals regularly travel17. All studies were undertaken during daylight hours (06:30–11:30 h) during periods of peak social activity.Figure 1Study site and experimental areas. (A) Satellite view of study site: a section of Piro beach, Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica. Dashed red squares indicate areas where experiments were carried out and schematic versions are shown below in (B) and (C) (Satellite image: created using Google Earth Version 9, https://earth.google.com/). (B) Overhead view of the section of the beach where free-roam experiments were carried out. Arrows denoting left and right correspond to stimulus directions during free-roam experiments. (C) Overhead view of the beach-forest interface where the handled experiments were carried out. Arrows denoting left, right, forest, and ocean correspond to stimulus directions during handled experiments. The solid red box represents the platform on which the artificial beach was created. For (B) and (C), environment is color coded: blue = ocean, yellow = beach sand, dark green = rainforest, light green = open grassy area with sparse trees. Compass in the bottom left of each panel shows cardinal directions.Full size imageWe conducted two separate sets of experiments, both involving a similar stimulus design (below). First, to determine whether free-roaming individuals were biased in their movement decisions by a collective, we performed a set of free-roam experiments (see “Experiment 1: Free-roam”). The free-roam experiments were conducted directly on the beach (Fig. 1B; 8° 23′ 39.5″ N, 83° 20′ 10.2″ W). Second, to determine whether an increase in danger influenced the relative independence versus social bias in individual movement, we performed a set of handled experiments (see “Experiment 2: Handled”). The handled experiments were conducted on a platform (Fig. 1C; 8° 23′ 33.2″ N, 83° 19′ 50.6″ W), which was immediately adjacent to the beach and situated within the range of the crabs’ normal daily movements. All reported compass bearings are relative to magnetic North (0°) unless otherwise specified.Stimulus designAs conspecific ‘stand-ins’, we used N = 60 Nerita scabricosta shells (C. compressus’ preferred shell species23), spanning a natural range of sizes (9–32 mm) within this population (Table S1; Fig. S1). To create a group of these stand-ins that we could manoeuvre as a collective, each shell was affixed using epoxy to one of four strands of clear fishing line, which were each 4 m long. These lines were spaced approximately 30 cm apart on a long wooden dowel (Figs. 2A,B, 3A,B). An equal number of shells (N = 15 shells per line) were distributed randomly along the 2 m of each fishing line furthest from the dowel. To allow the experimenter to manoeuvre the stimuli, without disturbing live crabs’ behaviour, another fishing line (4 m in length) was attached to the top of the dowel. With this line, the entire apparatus could be pulled by the experimenter from a distance, thereby simulating synchronised movement of the entire collective. To control for any influence the apparatus might have on focal individuals (other than that produced by the movement of the shell ‘stand-ins’), the entire apparatus—dowels and fishing lines—was replicated, just without any attached shells, for use as a control (Figs. 2C, 3C).Figure 2Free-roam experiments: stimuli and experimental design. (A) Photograph of a free-roam experiment in progress, with a drone hovering above and one of the authors (CD) pulling the simulated collective (Photo: Jakob Krieger). Schematics of stimuli are shown in B and C, with N = 3 free-roaming crabs also pictured. (B) Experimental stimuli: consisting of N = 60 shells arranged in four lines of fifteen shells each, attached to clear fishing line and fixed to a wooden dowel. (C) Control stimuli: four empty lines of clear fishing line, fixed to a wooden dowel. An experimenter moved the stimuli from a distance, by pulling another clear fishing line along an open strip of sandy beach in the presence of free roaming crabs. Each experiment was video recorded from above by an overhead drone.Full size imageFigure 3Handled experiments: stimuli and experimental design. (A) Photograph of the artificial beach created on a platform adjacent to the natural beach (Photo: Mark Laidre). Photo shows experimental stimulus and an opaque plastic cup in the center, under which a focal crab was placed prior to the start of each experiment. Schematics of stimuli are shown in (B) and (C). (B) Experimental stimuli: consisting of 60 shells arranged in four lines of fifteen, attached to clear fishing line and fixed to a wooden dowel. (C) Control stimuli: four empty lines of clear fishing line, fixed to a wooden dowel. The cup was removed by one experimenter from a distance via an attached clear fishing line on a pulley system; the stimulus was then maneuvered by a second experimenter, also from a distance, via another clear fishing line.Full size imageExperiment 1: Free-roamTo test whether the movement of the collective influenced free-roaming individuals’ travel direction, the stimuli were pulled across the beach at a uniform speed (1 m per min), within the natural range of the walking speed of social hermit crabs17,22,23. Each trial lasted 1 min. A total of N = 80 free-roam trials were conducted, N = 40 experimental (with the full collective, represented by all the shells) and N = 40 controls (with only the raw materials, but no shell collective). For each of the N = 80 trials, the movement of a single free-roaming focal individual was recorded.It is not uncommon to see multiple crabs moving parallel to (or perpendicular to) the shore, since many individuals will often be collectively attracted to eviction sites, injured conspecifics, or food items, with all the attracted individuals travelling in a roughly parallel formation16,17. For each trial in the free-roam experiments, the stimuli were pulled parallel to the shore (Fig. 1B), either to the right (116.1°) or to the left (296.1°). We did not pull the stimuli perpendicular to the shore, given the substantial slope from the forest down to the ocean, which would have confounded any such comparisons. Condition (experimental or control) and stimulus direction (right or left) were selected randomly, with balanced sample sizes (N = 20 for each). To ensure there was a free-roaming focal individual, whose movement we could measure in response to the stimulus, a trial was only carried out when at least one live crab was walking within approximately 30 cm of the stationary stimulus. Then pulling was initiated.To avoid disturbing live individuals by moving through or near the vicinity, we gathered overhead video footage of all experiments using a drone (Phantom advanced model GL300C). Drone video recorded all interactions between the focal individual and the simulated collective while the drone hovered at a height of approximately 2 m above the beach. At this height, there was no disturbance to natural behaviour or movement of the crabs, and the drone remained positioned overhead for at least 1 min prior to the start of a trial. Minor adjustments to position were then made between trials due to drone drift (i.e., slight movement of the drone due to wind).To randomly select focal individuals for video coding, we first split an image of the starting frame of each video file into a 4 × 4 matrix, with N = 16 equally-sized sections, and then used a random number generator to choose one section (repeating this step if no crabs were present in the selected section). Second, we numbered all individuals in the selected section and again used a random number generator to select the individual.To calculate bearings relative to magnetic North for the direction each focal crab moved, we first measured the angle of divergence (°) between the stimulus trajectory and the focal crabs’ trajectory. Focal crab trajectory—a proxy for the overall direction of the crab’s movement—was measured by drawing a straight line from the start-to-end position of that individual (see Fig. S2 and Vid. S1 for further explanation). Stimulus trajectory was measured in the same manner, using the shell closest to the focal at the beginning of the trial. Using Google Maps and the IGIS Map bearing angle calculator, we calculated the bearing of our stimuli (right and left) relative to true North (right: 114°, left: 294°). To determine bearings for our stimuli relative to magnetic North, we then used the Enhanced Magnetic Model (EMM) magnetic field calculator, provided by NOAA, to calculate the relevant declination (− 2.1°) for our coordinates on the dates the experiments were carried out, subtracting this value from true North. Thus, for the free-roam experiments, the bearing of a stimulus moving to the right, relative to magnetic North, was 116.1°, and the bearing of a stimulus moving to the left, relative to magnetic North, was 296.1°. Lastly, bearings for focal crabs’ directions, relative to magnetic North, could then be calculated using the new bearings of the stimuli and the angle of divergence between stimulus and crab trajectories.To gauge the level of interaction that focal individuals had with the collective, we recorded whether or not individuals initiated contact with shells in the experimental condition. An individual was classed as having initiated contact if it climbed onto a shell or touched a shell with its claws (Vid. S2). Additionally, we noted whether individuals were bumped by passing shells. An individual was classed as having been bumped if a moving shell hit it while the individual was withdrawn, stationary, or facing away from the moving shell (Vid. S3).To assess whether drone drift during experiments was a problem, we examined a random sample (N = 20) of the videos, both control (N = 10) and experimental (N = 10). We took N = 40 images from these 20 videos (i.e., two images from each video: one at the start of the 1-min trial and one at the end of the 1-min trial) and used a system wherein we marked the same two distinguishable fixed points on the landscape in each pair of images. We then overlaid the images in each pair, allowing us to see any longitudinal or latitudinal movement as well as any potential rotation of the drone. Nineteen of the N = 20 pairs of images showed virtually identical overlap of the markers, with just one image showing a minor gap between 1 of the 2 landmarks, suggesting slight rotation of the drone. We were therefore confident that drone drift was not an issue in our analyses.All videos were coded by CD. To measure inter-observer reliability for the angle of divergence (°) between stimulus trajectory and focal crabs’ trajectory (see Fig. S2), a random sample of videos (N = 41 total, N = 22 of experimental and N = 19 of control) were also coded by a second observer (MP) who was naïve to the competing hypotheses. There was strong inter-observer reliability in the measurements (F1,39 = 142.8, p  More
