The First and Last Line from the 'All In The Family' Cast

Fishermen and scientists were alarmed when billions of crabs vanished from the Bering 
Sea near Alaska in 2022. It wasn’t overfishing, scientists explained — it was likely the
 shockingly warm water that sent the crabs’ metabolism into overdrive and starved them 
to death. But their horrific demise appears to be just one impact of the massive transition
 unfolding in the region. 

Florida Horseshoe Crab Watch | Nature Coast Biological Station. Horseshoe crabs (Limulus
 polyphemus) are a common sight on sandy beaches and other nearshore habitats in Florida.
 Horseshoe crabs are important for several reasons. Many marine species eat horseshoe crab
 eggs, the crabs serve as bait (conch and eel fisheries) and they are captured live for display in 
aquaria and research. In addition, the blood of horseshoe crabs is vital for biomedical testing
 – the FDA requires that all injectable medicines, devices used for injection, and internal 
prosthetics undergo testing with an extract only found in horseshoe crab blood (Limulus
 Amebocyte Lysate). 

Penis Worms May Have Been the First Real Hermits | Smithsonian. Now, a team of scientists
 report hermiting behavior evolved more than 500 million years ago and hermit crabs weren't
 the first to do it. Instead, the first true hermits were priapulids—suggestively shaped critters
 known as penis worms, Brandon Spektor reports for Live Science. Colloquially named “penis
 worms” for their phallus-like shape, they apparently started inhabiting empty cone-shaped 
seashells 530 million years ago. Hermit crab Priapulida Global web icon Penis worms were
 the hermit crabs of their time.
