'''Huckit Crabs''' are a species of [[crab]]s that first appears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They wear a red shell and have two yellow feet and only one claw that it uses to throw either sand balls or rocks. Their name is a pun on "hermit crab" (the crab species they resemble) and the term "huck it", referring to their method of attack. They try to hit [[Mario]] and his company with their projectiles, which travel in a straight line when thrown. Their rock-throwing technique is very similar to [[Clawgrip]], the crab boss from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''.

Huckit Crabs reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. They are only found in [[Waterspout Beach]]. This time, they throw rocks. The rocks they throw can also be raised in elevation by a [[Water Geyser]]. Unlike in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', throwing their projectile does not push them back.
