The horseshoe crab that was found at Mazon Creek in Illinois. The brain fossil is believed to be around 310 million years old, making it one of the oldest of its kind ever discovered.

Russell Bicknell, the leading author of this find, said that the chances of finding a fossilized rain are "one in a million."

Yes, according to the evolutionary timescale. But in the creationists, it is just normal. The animal probably died during the Flood of Noah’s days.

Small Crab, Big Headache for Evolutionists



This crab does not support evolution.




Joel Kontinen


Living fossils cause headaches for evolutionists – or at least they should. While the (neo) Darwinian theory of evolution predicts that species change dramatically over millions of years, surprisingly many species hardly change at all.

Thus, the horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus) has hardly changed in over ”400 million” years.

There is no shortage of living fossils.
