    Horseshoe crabs have been existing for almost half a billion years, I would genuinely be sad if we endanger them to critical levels

      Climate Change is warming the waters they spawn their eggs in. They’re becoming endangered from that. Not because of a few we harvest blood from.

        I didn’t say that harvesting blood is the one thing endangering them, did I. Just that it would be a shame to see them go

          That’s the topic of this thread and even if you didn’t say blood harvesting was endangering them, most people are already going to be thinking that’s what you’re implying.

            That’s a fair assumption to make, true.
            Idk, I’m just someone who says things exactly the way I think 'em. I don’t intend for a deeper meaning to be interpreted, but people are going to do that, because that’s just how people are. So again, fair.

        But the blood harvesting helps. Huh. Never thought I’d use the word “blood harvest” today, or ever really.
