They're so fascinating underneath :)
My friends & I went to the Florida Keys on a whim two days ago. We went snorkeling in Key Largo and found this guy :) He was about 8-9" wide. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhzJCILPGhs

Sorry I just remember one year my family and I went to Chincoteague Island and we went to the part of the beach that was just tide pools. And there were these two horseshoe crabs making more horseshoe crabs and these idiot brat kids came over and pried them apart and it made my mom and I really angry...
The ol' reliable of crustaceans! Been around for aaages and will be for another age! :3
Fun fact which you probably already knew; Horseshoe crabs have blue blood, literally blue, because they don't have haemoglobin. Instead they have Haemocyanin, which uses a copper molecule instead of an iron molecule. :3
