Do crabs have a endocannabinoid system πŸ€”

:joy: Well I’m not sure, but I do know that lobsters and crabs have a very small number of neurons – like 100-200K, compared to about a 100B for mammals.

I’ve heard bugs don’t have an endocannabinoid system, and thus can’t get high, but I have a hard time believing it. I’ve seen first-hand evidence that suggests a great many types of insects appear to be affected by cannabinoids.
Also, long-dead and desiccated wasps can be brought back to life with the juice of a fresh grape β€” but that’s a story for another day. :rofl:

the answer is yes, crabs are invertebrates and they have the ECS! Insects no…
