      To our joy，the cage was filled with dozens of soft shell crabs.Squatting （蹲） down，we watched them for a moment.At first they fought against each other to climb out hard，trying to escape.Many were pulled back into the cage.Later，some gave up，but there were still some crabs trying to escape again and again.
