There is a tiny land in the Indian Ocean, populated with c. 2000 residents, where, with the start of rainy season all the crabs are steadily heading the ocean to dive and lay eggs. The journey takes nearly a week, and is perilous. Afterwards, the male and female crabs mate. The male then returns to the forest, and the female waits for the moon and tide to be just right so she can lay eggs in the ocean. The female crab returns to the rainforest and the eggs immediately hatch. Those that are not eaten by fish grow for one month in the ocean, and then instinctively head the forest. Such a brilliant display of the crustaceans' keen sense in the earth's magnetic field! Yet, this mysterious land has more amazing events and sights to offer for the scientists, explorers, and eco-tourists. And the name of the land is Christmas Island, baptized after Captain James Cook's visit on Christmas eve (December 24, 1777). Check the content of this surrealistic pourquoi-diary for the information you need to make your unique trip happen.

"Christmas Island is a small territory of Australia located in the Indian Ocean. It is home to three main ethnic groups, the smallest of which are European Australians. Christmas Island is also where those who arrive "illegally" to seek asylum in Australia are accommodated. Christmas Island has played a key role in Australian security, located as it is at the northern extremity of Australian territory; much closer to Indonesia than to the nation to which it belongs, and from whose territory it has recently been excised for migration purposes." "This anthropological exploration - the very first one ever undertaken of this strategically important island - focuses closely on the sensual engagements people have with place, shows how Christmas Islanders make recourse to the animals, birds and topographic features of the island to create uniquely islandic ways of being at home - and ways of creating "others" who will never belong - under volatile political circumstances."--BOOK JACKET.

Christmas Island is an Australian external territory located in the Indian Ocean, approximately 360 kilometers south of Java and 2,600 kilometers northwest of Perth. It is only 135 square kilometers in size, making it one of the smallest territories in Australia. The island is famous worldwide for its spectacular annual red crab migration where millions of red crabs march from the forest to the sea to spawn. The island was discovered by the British in 1643 and named after the day of its discovery, which was Christmas Day. In 1958, the island was transferred to Australia, and today it is an Australian territory with a mixed population of mainly Chinese, Australian, and Malay. The island is known for its rich natural diversity and cultural heritage. It is home to an incredible array of flora and fauna, including over a hundred bird species, several endangered species such as the Golden Bosun (an endemic bird), and several types of crabs unique to the island. The island's distinct culture is a blend of Asian and Australian influences, with its primary language being English, but dialects such as Chinese Malay and Indian dialects are also spoken. Visitors to Christmas Island have the opportunity to experience its unique culture and outstanding natural beauty, making it an increasingly popular tourist destination.
