Stone Crab
SPECULATEDMenippe mercenaria
A Gulf crab harvested exclusively for its claws, which regenerate after legal removal.
The Florida Stone Crab is a uniquely managed fishery — one claw is harvested and the live crab is returned to regrow it, typically over 12-18 months. Stone Crab Season is a major Leonida food event, with claws fetching extraordinary prices in Vice City's seafood restaurants.
