Trans-Atlantic Cables Cut

Arthur C. Clark's Songs of Distant Earth has a sub-plot in which intelligent lobster-like creatures cut the undersea communication cables with their claws. Then they wrap them around their wrists and wear them as trophy-jewelry.

The photo below shows a similar lobster-like creature attempting to consume a Volkswagen Beetle while a family watches, unable to stop the creature.
