ItemChanceLow on hearts
Heart1 in 41 in 2

Low on hearts means the warning beep is on: half a heart or less when Link has 3 to 5 hearts in all, 1 heart or less with 6 to 8, 2 hearts or less with 9 to 11, and 3 hearts or less with 12 to 14.

Each of these kills also counts toward a Piece of Power.

In the guide books

Sand Crab in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Player's Guide
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Player's Guide, p. 95.

Crabs scurry along sideways, and they can move fast. Still, a crab with all of its armor is no match for a hero with a sharp blade.

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Player's Guide, Nintendo of America, 1993, p. 95.

A giant crab found only on Toronbo Shores. Being a crab, it's quick moving sideways but very slow moving up and down. Attack it head-on with your sword.
