“but the YouTuber could face legal action if he is guilty of catching them from a national park, which he didn’t.”

Could he also face legal action for murder, which he didn’t do?  Or maybe legal charges for theft, which he didn’t do? 
 

The kid took some unprotected species of crab from the sea and took them home. Kids have been doing this kind of thing for generations. Far better to post such videos than the usual things of getting pissed up in Nightclubs.

Something that's always baffled me: How do you catch crabs if you're a hermit?

They are just worried of a monkey see monkey do scenario. The one thing I see is these You tubers and Tik Tok posters are always trying to out-do each or copy the act to get more clicks and at some point this has or may turn ugly an volatile. So in a sense I sort of understand the fuss about it. I never ever ever thought of taking a hermit crab home and would never ever do such a stupid thing. Such fun lovely creatures and this dude has 4.5 million subscribers.

Yea this is a good point. With social media it’s a race to the bottom (they think it’s the top). Ban him from catching crabs for the rest of his life. A fair few people visiting Thailand would be happy with that as a punishment 😉

Yeah, our new generation is on the verge of spiraling out of control really quick. Can you believe they are selling property in metaverses now?

Yes it has unless you are wealthy and want to control that as well. Now if I died and my soul could go there and it is another dimensional real life there then ok, but I still have to pay for it. But it cannot be extracting my worth of my mind and my soul to put it into smething like that. Just let me pass away and die the normal way and my ming thoughts and soul go to the next plateau with no computer push.
