King Sand Crabs are aggressive monsters that look like sandy boulders while disguised, but attack when walked by. They are found inside the Catacombs of Kourend in the southeast section of the dungeon, as well as the Crabclaw Caves found south of the Woodcutting Guild.
Unlike regular Sand Crabs, King Sand Crabs have strong defensive and offensive stats. Although not as dangerous as their combat level suggests, players should not consider them harmless like their lesser siblings.
