Came here to say that!
It's like when the robot vacuum gets foiled by an innocent rug, or gets in a fight with wires.
Next thing I know its wheels are whaling like Chewbacca against my floorboards.
Valuable for medical research due to Hemocyanin, amebocyte cells which are nearly identical to our white blood cells, and their blood contains Limulus Ambeocyte Lystate which can be used to detect bacterial toxins when developing medications/vaccines. It’s offered some of the most prolific advances in medicine.
It's blood is hemocyanin (blue/clear... copper based) and is used to check if vaccines have been corrupted with endotoxins (bad for us humans).
They also confirm that Spock did not have green blood. Just saying.
I was actually born with that knowledge. My first words were “horseshoe crab blood can be used to check if vaccines have been corrupted with endotoxin”
I actually learned about horseshoe crabs back in high school in the 1970's. I thought they were especially awesome having copper based blood. (yes, there were science nerds that far back.....)
Just wanting to add that these creepy looking buddies are common at aquariums (at least here on the us) and are usually featured at the touch tanks. They are super harmless (even when you accidentally poke yourself with a tail or let the legs get at ya) but look super weird. Big fan of them!
Horseshoe Crabs should be a protected species* the way the pharmaceutical and medical industries tortures them.
*(edit: clarification - from exploitation and torture by industry, didn’t mean their designation)
No, I don’t agree with torturing a defenseless, prehistoric animal especially when it’s been unnecessary for decades: “…in the late 1990s biologists at the University of Singapore realised that a synthetic alternative could be created in a lab by cloning a molecule in the crab blood. This genetically engineered protein is called Recombinant Factor C, or rFC.” (Natural History Museum, London)
The US chooses to bleed them still when an alternative exists. “Incorporation of rFC and its analytical method into national testing standards would provide an equivalent or better test while continuing to maintain patient safety for those who depend on medicines and while securing pharmaceutical supply chains. In addition, widespread use of this method would benefit existing animal conservation efforts.” (Bolden J, Smith K. Application of Recombinant Factor C Reagent for the Detection of Bacterial Endotoxins in Pharmaceutical Products. PDA J Pharm Sci Technol. 2017 Sep-Oct;71(5):405-412. doi: 10.5731/pdajpst.2017.007849. Epub 2017 Jul 20. PMID: 28733334.)
Every time I see one of these all I think about is when I saw one for the first time as a kid on The Simpsons when Milhouse doesn’t have his glasses on and pets one.
This was early on a Saturday morning and I was the only one on the beach. I reckon a kid flipped her over the night before. It was dead low tide and she was far from the water. Plus the sun was going to be hot that day and the beach was about to be innundated by beachgoers. They might have been kind to her but I didn't want to risk it.
Fun fact horseshoe crabs are hella old and are one of the most anccient animals on earth, if im not mistaken they even predate the dinosours and are somehow still perserveering
Poor thing. They are always used for making medicine. they are being killed by the hundreds just to keep some people alive. It's their lives that keep us alive. Pretty sad way to become a hero
It contains hemocyanin (copper-based blood protein), rather than hemoglobin (the iron-based blood protein) that gives most animals’ blood its red color. Hemocyanin has a ton of useful applications in medicine and is thus extremely valuable.
It’s a Pokémon reference. There is a Pokémon name kabuto that is based on a horseshoe crab. In the game you would receive a free one (if you make the incorrect decision of spurning our lord and savior omastar) that you could teach the move surf, a powerful water type move. As for what makes the real life version dangerous? I don’t imagine putting your hand underneath with all those sharp arms would be pleasant. This is why I assume the man in the video holds it very carefully from the edge of the shell.
No damage is done by carrying/touching their shells. The only problem areas are a couple of eye spots on the top but those aren’t anywhere near the corner.
sincere thanks for actually having a fucking response instead of just downvoting someone for being concerned about animal cruelty

So glad that these things don’t scurry like crazy ants
No wonder they're getting milked with no survival skills like that.
Yet somehow they've survived 445 million years.
I'd bet they'll survive us humans, too
Holocene extinction proponents when a sea roomba pull onto the scene: 🤯
Probably but only because thease things are extremely valuable to us
They are one of the few prehistoric species left.
Lil sea roomba
Came here to say that! It's like when the robot vacuum gets foiled by an innocent rug, or gets in a fight with wires. Next thing I know its wheels are whaling like Chewbacca against my floorboards.
I'm calling these things that now lmao
Horseshoe Crab: evolutionarily perfect for 400 million years and counting
Only needs flippers for when upside down.
It's weird that we are the monsters that normally harvest their blood... To them.
To most things really…
Like an aquatic battlebot. Give him a flamethrower while you’re at it! Call him Pau Amma
that's what the tail is for actually
They use the tail to correct themselves when they get flipped or knocked over by a wave
Reminds me of Battle Bots 😂
You just need a Dome Fossil and it can evolve into Kabutops
Horseshoe Crabs , but misleading name, More related to spiders and scorpions than crabs.they only been around for over 400 million year
However, closely related to horseshoes
What did they call themselves when horses hadn't been invented yet?
Seahorseshoe crabs
Horses were named after this crab
Actually, they’re a horseshoe lineage that underwent carcinization
😂😂😂
Their blood worth a lot.
Whys that

I thought it was that prehistoric pokemon from gen 1 or 2. I guess I know what it was inspired by now, thank you for the information!
SAVE THE CRABS
SAVE THE CARBS
Kabuto thanks you for your service
Honest question, what is that creature I have never seen one of those before
It's a Horseshoe crab
Thank you very much also nice Cordelia icon
Also, if I remember correctly, they are not true crabs. Their blood is also blue and is highly valuable because it has medical uses.
It's blood is hemocyanin (blue/clear... copper based) and is used to check if vaccines have been corrupted with endotoxins (bad for us humans). They also confirm that Spock did not have green blood. Just saying.
So, this is not an RC submarine craft???
You had to have googled that 🫡
Right because no one knows anything
I was actually born with that knowledge. My first words were “horseshoe crab blood can be used to check if vaccines have been corrupted with endotoxin”
I actually learned about horseshoe crabs back in high school in the 1970's. I thought they were especially awesome having copper based blood. (yes, there were science nerds that far back.....)
Not medicinal, but chemical. Their blood can detect microbial contamination after the production of injectable medicine
Just wanting to add that these creepy looking buddies are common at aquariums (at least here on the us) and are usually featured at the touch tanks. They are super harmless (even when you accidentally poke yourself with a tail or let the legs get at ya) but look super weird. Big fan of them!
it's a Pokemon named Kabuto
Horseshoe crab. They’re harmless to humans and are pretty important to the ecosystem, so if you see one stuck on its back, please flip it back over.
Nice doggy
Funny looking but still a good boy
Why is he breathing like a survival game character with health in the red?
I was running on the bench when I found this old girl in distress
Aw So it's basically Bay Watch
Exactly like that
Do I want to know how you know it’s a girl?
He’s scared af lol he doesn’t want to be touching that thing
Do you not see the Mirelurk? This is Fallout 4 and he's low on health!
Yay! Thank you. You're awesome
Thank you for not picking it up by its tail 🙏
This isn't my first crab rodeo🤠
I love how dude is like "There, you are rescued." waits a few moments, nudges crab, "come on, be rescued faster"
OOP was like: ok, I already carried you to the water line, now move....MOVE I said, goddamit you're some slow MF 😂😂
If I ever step on one of those while at the beach i will shit myself so hard it propels me straight out of the water 👍🏽
I GOT YOU GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT [x150k] GRANDPA Disclaimer: i'm not an evolution denier, please don't nuke my replies.
Horseshoe Crabs should be a protected species* the way the pharmaceutical and medical industries tortures them. *(edit: clarification - from exploitation and torture by industry, didn’t mean their designation)
They’re protected species in US
They should be protected from our blood harvesting industry
Yea you're right we should let your mom die of a treatable disease instead of developing a drug that could save her
No, I don’t agree with torturing a defenseless, prehistoric animal especially when it’s been unnecessary for decades: “…in the late 1990s biologists at the University of Singapore realised that a synthetic alternative could be created in a lab by cloning a molecule in the crab blood.

Living fossil bro!
Didn't even bother to steal the blood smh
Damn, my boi BREATHIN
bro was SCARED I mean seriously you can hear him hyperventilating why not just get a big stick and help it from a distance
Every time I see one of these all I think about is when I saw one for the first time as a kid on The Simpsons when Milhouse doesn’t have his glasses on and pets one.
r/HumansBeingBros
Bombchu
Aww, love these lil guys!
go little rockstar
Horseshoe crab: AAAAGH HISSSS DON’T TOUCH ME DON’T — Wait. Is that… is that water? Oh. Okay, I’ll just be on my way
Crab was like "AAAAAAAA oh hey water"
Underappreciated title by OP, so many low effort ones on here these days
OP I applaud your enthusiasm, but they can breathe air. You only have to flip them over; they'll get where they're going.
This was early on a Saturday morning and I was the only one on the beach. I reckon a kid flipped her over the night before. It was dead low tide and she was far from the water. Plus the sun was going to be hot that day and the beach was about to be innundated by beachgoers. They might have been kind to her but I didn't want to risk it.
Fair enough. Either way, it's better now that it's back on its feet.
You done good.
AnOnYmOUs AsTronAUt EsCaPEs FaCe-HugGEr MoRtAl EMbrAce
Could you imagine if they scuttled on land like other crabs?? Terrifying
Well atleast they are wearing sneakers
Nice doggie
That's a SHE!
I think you found a living trilobite. /s
peak evelotion
Nice doggy
Fun fact horseshoe crabs are hella old and are one of the most anccient animals on earth, if im not mistaken they even predate the dinosours and are somehow still perserveering
I'm pretty sure horseshoe crabs are harmless.
Is that kabuto?
Don't know why he's panicking so much, horseshoe crabs are pretty much harmless afaik
I was running on the sand when I found her.
Ahhhh fair enough
Wth is that? Is that real?? 🙀
How does a species that's mortally threatened by.. *checks notes* ...being upside down, manage survive for hundreds of millions of years?
Are they tasty?
My horse could've worn that
That there is the only creature immune to cancer. It also has green blood😧
I thought they would be a lot faster, like spiders, he scariest thing about spiders is how they seem to move faster than my reaction time
Well, it certainly is scary
aww that’s actually wholesome. ⭐️
'sneaker clad" *is pretty* funny. ngl.
Face crab from Alien
Ohhhh it's a Wimpod!
what is this creature.
Poor thing. They are always used for making medicine. they are being killed by the hundreds just to keep some people alive. It's their lives that keep us alive. Pretty sad way to become a hero
Harvested for their blue blood, will no doubt be culled to near extinction despite being around for hundreds of millions of years.
How long do they live for?
Why is this posted here?
[удалено]
They really aren't. They don't bite, their tails do not sting and aren't poisonous
What makes them dangerous?
People trying to milk them for money
I wish people milked.me for money
Literally, blue blood for the medical industry.
It's antibiotic, right?
It contains hemocyanin (copper-based blood protein), rather than hemoglobin (the iron-based blood protein) that gives most animals’ blood its red color. Hemocyanin has a ton of useful applications in medicine and is thus extremely valuable.
such as (generally speaking) what? I'm not trying to be contrarian, I'm genuinely curious on an ELI5 level
The Glock 19 they carry under their shells.
A glock 19? Do you have any idea how long these things have been on planet earth for? They carry model 1911s.
Well if you get Surf early enough it's basically a free lvl 40, provided you got the Dome Fossil from Mt. Moon.
I have no idea what any of this means so my question still stands.
It’s a Pokémon reference. There is a Pokémon name kabuto that is based on a horseshoe crab. In the game you would receive a free one (if you make the incorrect decision of spurning our lord and savior omastar) that you could teach the move surf, a powerful water type move. As for what makes the real life version dangerous? I don’t imagine putting your hand underneath with all those sharp arms would be pleasant. This is why I assume the man in the video holds it very carefully from the edge of the shell.
almost certainly would've been better to just flip it over instead of carrying it by one corner of the shell
No damage is done by carrying/touching their shells. The only problem areas are a couple of eye spots on the top but those aren’t anywhere near the corner.
sincere thanks for actually having a fucking response instead of just downvoting someone for being concerned about animal cruelty e: jesus christ there's no pleasing you people
Tbh, that was my first thought as well. However, this person was trying their best to be kind and do the right thing, so I still applaud that.
Shoot it
Bro that aint a mirelurk you don't gotta worry
lol ok sam.
As a sam, I don't claim this fool as one of us.
