Here are 5 cool facts!
about them.
Horseshoe crabs have blue blood.
And that blood contains special cells that can help fight infections, not only for the horseshoe crab, but for humans as well.
Horseshoe crabs are experts, when it comes to sight.
They have ten eyes located all around their body and some of those eyes act as light sensors.
When horseshoe crab babies are hatched, they are the size of your fingernail and they will continue to grow to up to the size of a dinner plate.
Horseshoe crabs are not actually crabs.
What?!
[ Laughs ] In fact, they aren't even crustaceans.
They lack antennae and they are more closely related to scorpions and spiders.
If they lose a limb at a young age, they can grow it back after they molt.
Horseshoe crabs can molt up to one to two times per year.
