Horseshoe crabs face extinction threat Post News Network Mahakalapara: An endangered marine creature, horseshoe crab, is on the verge of extinction allegedly due to rampant smuggling to foreign countries by some unscrupulous traders, a report said. The rare marine creature is in danger. The crabs are being pushed into extinction despite their tenacity in surviving around 450 million years. There are four types of the marine creature found in the Pacific and Indian oceans. However, two types of horseshoe crabs are found in the marshy mangrove forest and sandcast areas on the state’s coast. Moreover, the movement of mechanised fishing boats, trawlers and use of plastic nets for fishing has also proved detrimental to the population of this endangered species.
