YETI YETI YETI!!!! #12 Kiwa hirsuta (Phylum: Arthropoda, Class: Malacostraca, Order: Decapoda, Family: Kiwaidae) Now imagine doing the Yeti Stomp (I heart Backyardigans!) in the frigid waters of the deep sea instead of the icy north. The Yeti Crab, Kiwa hirsuta, shares the white shaggy appearance with its more well-known pseudo-relative of the snow.
