Deep dives

The danger faced by horseshoe crabs due to blood extraction

Horseshoe crabs are being harmed due to the extraction of their blue blood, which is used in pharmaceuticals. Thousands of crabs are captured, have their blood drained, and then are released back into the ocean. Female crabs lose up to 70% of their blood during this process, leading to a weakening of their population. This practice has been ongoing since 1975 and is endangering these ancient creatures.
