Strange sculpture unearthed in Yibin China - help needed for more info

[1984hasarrived]

I see it as a crab too.
In fact, that looks like a pincer in the red.
With a flat head and eyes on top like a crab.


Interesting tho.
Pretty cool find to have next to your house!

Yeah, that is what I thought but I had someone do an oral translation of the article and they said it was a "toad" - obviously not, with pincers.  Hopefully @guohua can find the article in `chinese, I lost it and could not find it again.  Even tried searching in Chinese too but no luck.
