Staff at the Denver Zoo Conservation Alliance shared the news on Facebook of a successful rescue of a Halloween crab, along with photos. 

The crabs are typically two to three inches in size.

They can live for up to 10 years, according to the Critter Squad.

"To lean into the Halloween spirit, you can catch this crab in our Animal Ambassador demonstrations at the Gates Amphitheatre all month long," said the zoo's post.

Founded in 1896, the zoo is operated by the Denver Zoological Foundation.
