Researchers from the College of Oceanology at Guangxi Beibu Gulf University in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region have recently captured rare video images of a horseshoe crab.
The horseshoe crab is a species that has lived on the earth since 400 million years ago and still retains its original appearance.
The species, known as "living fossil," was listed on the red list of endangered species by IUCN in 2012 and has become a second-class protected animal in China.
The Beibu Gulf of Guangxi and its coasts are the main habitat and breeding area for the species.
