{{Blathers|NL|Horseshoe crabs are called "living fossils," as they have not evolved since the age of the dinosaurs. Their back are covered by a hard shell, forming a simple silhouette with their flat backs and long tails. Though referred to as crabs, they're actually more closely related to spiders and scorpions.}} | {{Blathers|NL|Horseshoe crabs are called "living fossils," as they have not evolved since the age of the dinosaurs.

{{Blathers|NH|Some might say it's good luck to catch a '''horseshoe crab'''. But I am NOT among them, eh wot!

With that tank-like shell,<small> I suppose it WOULD be the one to survive.</small> but what truly rattles me to the beak...
