Horseshoe Crabs in Ptown
It’s breeding time for Horseshoe crabs, which prefer to mate at night during high tide. The male rides the back of the female as they head toward the beach, where the female deposits eggs into a nest she has dug, and male fertilizes them. These protected “living fossils” haven’t changed much in 445 million years.
