Crabbats

Crabbats are a fictional species appearing in the animated television series Ben 10. They are insectoid aliens known for their aggressive nature and their ability to reproduce rapidly. Physically, Crabbats resemble a cross between a crab and a bat, possessing multiple limbs, a hard exoskeleton, and leathery wings. Their primary mode of attack involves swarming their opponents and delivering bites with their sharp mandibles. Crabbats are native to the planet Anurrais, a world characterized by its harsh and desolate environment. Their population can grow exponentially, making them a significant threat when encountered in large numbers. In the series, Crabbats are often depicted as a nuisance or a dangerous obstacle that the protagonist, Ben Tennyson, must overcome using his alien transformations. Their intelligence is generally portrayed as rudimentary, driven by instinct and a hive-mind mentality. While individually weak, their sheer numbers and relentless pursuit make them formidable adversaries. The species serves as a common enemy type within the Ben 10 universe, highlighting the dangers of alien life forms Ben encounters.
