-+Horseshoe+Crabs

-History- The horseshoe crabs are world's oldest and most fascinating creatures. They are at least 300 million years old. Thousands of other species have come and gone when Earth's land masses have shifted, but horseshoe crabs have survived and today remain much as they were those millions of years ago.

-Reproduction-
 * Horseshoe crabs spend most of their time in salt water on the bottom of bays and shallow coastal areas
 * Their favorite food is clams and worms
 * They live in warm water
 * When water temperatures are low in winter, they burrow down in the mud to wait for spring.
