The cockroach mice might be that they had only heard about or seen other slighly less terrible drawings of lobsters.

Oh wait, thats the ET thing.

The cockroach mice are little paisley looking ones.

That'd be really weird given how detailed the crab is, because the astacids – lobsters and crayfish – are globally distributed like crabs. The E.T. thing doesn't even have the right number of limbs, which is why I had to either invoke infraorder Anomura or assume a bilateral congenital limb defect.

It's actually like the product of trisexual reproduction between E.T., a lobster, and an arachnid.
