Why is this Philadelphia beach covered with 30 million horseshoe crabs?
Because they’re all trying to get the hell out of Philly?

Yes, it’s copper-based (hemocyanin vs hemoglobin). So presumably like Vulcan blood.

No Futurama reference yet? Am disappointed.

Not actually Philadelphia. Beach in Philly - what a card!

The glazes are luscious!
The first horseshoe crab I met was dead, lying on its back, during a Flaaarida trip w/my grandparents. I was very young - pre-preschool, if Memory serves, and also well freaked out! I’m glad I got over it - I love them. They’re weird, wonderful, ancient beasties.

I thank them for their service, but jeepers that’s a creepy photo! I imagine some alien race needing our spinal fluid and what our setup would look like.

What, you think all the abductions were JUST to get rectal probe?
Psh… That’s just for FUN. Putting the rectal in recreational.

You know how we know it isn’t in Philly? Because we don’t see horseshoe crabs fried, smothered in cheese, and served on a hoagie roll on any online menus is why.
