The Worlds largest concentration of Horseshoe Crabs resides in Delaware Bay. The population there had dropped by 70-90% within the last 15 years due to immoral harvest for their blood. With the current blood harvesting technique (breaking their back to get to the spine) it is estimated that between 10-30% (although it is MUCH likely to be higher, and some companies are thought to sell their used crabs as fish bait rather than returning them to the sea) of the Crabs that have their blood harvested die in the process. It it unknown how many die after being returned to the ocean. Survivors are often left unable to breed (or sometimes just produce less eggs) when returned to the wild, further hindering the population. At least 500,000 Horseshoe Crabs are harvested every year (collected during the spring mating season when they come up onto the beaches to breed. I doubt there are any current law against taking one with eggs, as they are seen as far too valuable.)

The value of Horseshoe Crab blood is between $13,000 and $15,000 a Liter. Or about $60,000 a Gallon. It is used in medical research as the blood is HIGHLY anti bacterial.

Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin in 1928, but it took 17 years to refine it for mass production. In 1945, even as the world's first commercial antibiotic became available, Fleming was quoted in the New York Times, where he delivered the following warning: "The greatest possibility of evil in self-medication is the use of too-small doses, so that instead of clearing up infection the microbes are educated to resist penicillin." Only five years later, in 1950, approximately 40% of hospital Staphylococcus aureus isolates were showing pronounced penicillin-resistance. Today, anti-bacterial resistance is an evolving medical crisis.

Thank you very much!!

Metabolism comes from the greek word μεταβολη, which means change. So, metabolism literally means the act of changing.

Damn, I guess deleting my uploaded pictures removes them from the post I attached them to. So I don't get a participation prize... Because I posted twice? (Even though the first post was not an entry into the competition.)
