Considering horses (and thus horseshoes) came way after the horseshoe crab, we really should rename the horseshoe to “crab shoe” or something and “horseshoe crab” to something else. Ideas welcome.
I’m in favour of renaming horses to crab feet.
Yeah I was gna say something like this - the crab is on the other foot, if you get my drift
Agree, they don’t seems Horse shoes, they are not even crabs or crustaceos, Arrow Tail Scorpion or Spider would maybe the biological most exact name.
angry hissing crab? nah that’s all of them. alexa how do you say pointy butt crab in esperanto? we gotta use dead languages to name our creatures
Cool thanks, we’ll be back for your blood!
The horseshoe crab denied evolution, so we’ve begun to forcefully take their blood sacrifice instead
