    My favorite horseshoe crab fact is that they have like nine different types of eyes. Even that tail is basically one big eye, covered in photoreceptive cells. We love to call them “primitive” but in fact those fuckers are highly developed pieces of biotechnology, able to survive 400 million years finding food in mud.
