Horseshoe crab blood is key to making a COVID-19 vaccine—but the ecosystem may suffer.


Concepts of Geographic Thinking:

Inquiry: How might the reduction in population of the Horseshoe crab impact ecosystems? How might this change impact humans? Why are Horseshoe crabs still harvested for their blood?

Activity: Collect data regarding Horseshoe crab populations and where they are found. Conduct an issue analysis regarding the crab. Create a spatial journal to display the research. Create a Story Map to communicate what should happen regarding the the harvest of Horseshoe crabs.
