Photo of the Day #238: Horseshoe Crab
A horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus) that was stranded on the beach. My wife turned it over and helped it back into the bay. Photographed May 17, 2008 at Cape Henlopen State Park, Delaware.
OMG, please tell me you didn't really turn it over! Rolling around squirming on their back for 45 minutes r so is necessary to mix the sperm/egg juice for mating! It was having a kind of orgasm and you ruined it!
A clear violation of The Prime Directive.
