Horseshoe crabs are arthropods of the family Limulidae and are the only surviving xiphosurans. Despite their name, they are not true crabs or even crustaceans. Rather, they are chelicerates.
Horseshoe crabs are important to out health. Many animals depend on them for food.
They are endagered nowadays, so we must protect them and prevent their population from deteriorating.
