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 south-east section of the dungeon, as well as the Crabclaw Caves found south of the Woodcutting Guild.
As their name suggests, these crabs are significantly tougher with better combat stats, although still fairly weak for their level.
