Correction: Hermit crabs may be "excited" by plastic pollution in ocean, researchers say

Hermit crabs may be "excited" by plastic pollution in ocean, researchers say

We've deleted a previous tweet to this story. After publication, England's University of Hull removed mention of the crabs possibly being "sexually excited" by the plastic from its release about the research. It now says they may be "excited." This story has been corrected.
