The horseshoe crab has endured for over 450 million years. It has survived several mass extinctions including the one that killed off the dinosaurs. One reason for their incredible resiliency is their ability to fend off bacterial infection. Their blood contains cells that clot around invading bacteria, thereby protecting them from the attacking toxins.In this episode we talk with three experts about how this animal's unique blue blood has become essential to modern medicine.

We talk with Catherine Ridley, VP of One Hundred Miles, about wildlife protection efforts in coastal Georgia, focusing on the endangered North Atlantic Right Whale and Loggerhead Sea Turtles who breed here and are at risk due to fatal ship strikes, fishing gear entanglements, dredging, and noise and light pollution, as well as discussing ancient Horseshoe Crabs, who are especially under threat lately by pharmaceutical industries who are capturing (kidnapping) hundreds of thousands of them and draining them of their blue blood, despite a synthetic substance that serves the same medical purpose without the massive animal exploitation.  In this 27-minute interview with In Tune to Nature host Carrie Freeman, Catherine Ridley discusses policy solutions such as zones for slower ship speeds, beach lighting ordinances, dredging bans during breeding season, and synthetic alternatives to horseshoe crab blood, all of which would save animal lives if we made them and our ecosystem health a priority. Catherine urges civic engagement and for us to get passionate and speak up.

Claudia Cragg (Twitter: @claudiacragg) speaks here with William Sargent about his book, , now out in a newly revised edtion. Surviving almost unmolested for 300 million years, the horseshoe crab is now the object of an intense legal and ethical struggle involving marine biologists, environmentalists, US government officials, biotechnologists, and international corporations. The source of this friction is the discovery 25 years ago that the blood of these ancient creatures serves as the basis for the most reliable test for the deadly and ubiquitous gram-negative bacteria. These bacteria are responsible for life-threatening diseases like meningitis, typhoid, E. coli, Legionnaire's Disease and toxic shock syndrome. Because every drug certified by the FDA must be tested using the horseshoe crab derivative known as Limulus lysate, a multimillion dollar industry has emerged involving the license to “bleed” horseshoe crabs and the rights to their breeding grounds. Since his youthful fascination with these ancient creatures, William Sargent has spent much of his life observing, studying, and collecting horseshoe crabs. 'Crab Wars' is a thoroughly accessible insider's guide to the discovery of the lysate test, the exploitation of the crabs at the hands of multinational pharmaceutical conglomerates, local fishing interests, and the legal and governmental wrangling over the creatures' ultimate fate. In the end, the story of the horseshoe crab is a sobering reflection on the unintended consequences of scientific progress and the danger of self-regulated industries controlling a limited natural resource. In his '' Sargent delves into the murky, often intertwined worlds of medical research and biological warfare to determine if Covid-19 was caused by accidents similar to those that have occurred from 1617 to the present.

This week's topic is the Horseshoe Crab, which is one animal we wouldn't describe as cute, but they sure are a winner when it comes to evolution.But first for Coffee and Complain, Amber gives a PSA on why we shouldn’t make-up shame, and Jennifer’s PSA is to not drink poop. (Actually, it's don’t inhale tap water, because you could get a brain eating amoeba). Did you know that Horseshoe Crabs aren’t actually crabs, they’re more like water bugs, and that they evolved 450 million years ago? Horseshoe Crabs have way more eyes then we have, almost to a creepy level, but everything has a reason... right? And wow, do they lay a ton of eggs, but only in their own special, particular sand. Meaning, it is almost impossible to breed them in captivity. Horseshoe Crabs are also going to play an important role in the Covid Vaccine process. How is this blue-blooded arthropod going to help save us? The same way they have been helping us make vaccines and injectable drugs and medical devices for the last 50 years.

Woodpeckers are fascinating birds. This time of the year, when Craig and I are on our morning walk, we hear the unmistakable sound of a woodpecker pecking at a tree or telephone pole. Most of the time, we can spot them clinging to the side of a tree, sometimes sideways or upside down. Then they peck the tree, and we wonder how they don't get a headache. ================== Vaccines contain the same germs that cause disease. For example, the measles vaccine contains the measles virus, and the Hib vaccine contains Hib bacteria. But they have been either killed or weakened to the point that they don't make you sick. Some vaccines contain only a part of the disease germ. A vaccine stimulates your immune system to produce antibodies, exactly like it would when exposed to the disease. After getting vaccinated, you develop immunity to that disease, without having to get the disease first. ================== The knee is the largest joint in the body, and having healthy knees is required to perform most everyday activities. The knee is made up of the lower end of the thighbone, the upper end of the shinbone, and the kneecap. The ends of these three bones are covered with cartilage, a smooth substance that protects the bones and enables them to move easily within the joint. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/sciencebytes/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/sciencebytes/support
