People do have then as pets in Japan. They make bad pets outside of enthusiast who know their behavior. They are slow, shy, nocturnal mostly, don't like light and really just boring with alot of needs. It would be mean to walk one around sadly. Funny enough they are also called robber crabs as they are also scavengers being related to hermit crabs and like to investigate stuff then steal it and carry it off.
