As long as horseshoe crabs are found, an inquiry is raised of why the male horseshoe crab always stays on the back of female horseshoe crab. It is, therefore, joked for the lazy man with a saying that, "Don't be like a horseshoe crab". This means that when the male horseshoe . crab falls from female horseshoe crab, he will die.

Then the evil garuda took the prince from the crowd of people and

flew away. The queen was shocked and saddens by the act of the

garuda taking her beloved prince.

The queen and servants sadly observed the way that garuda was taking

the prince and flying further and further over the sea.

Hopelessly, the queen and servant came back and informed the king

of this sad news. The king was horrendously sadder and called the

royal fortune of the prince.

At the time, no one was courageous to do such task and the announcers went on walking and reached the seaside. Fortunately, there was a lady named NAMKROEU living along the coast guaranteed that she could go and bring back the prince.

would give her valuable properties as the reward for her good deed when

she brought the prince back.

Sleeping on the beach with dew for a night, the prince was awake. The garuda was sorry for its food and flew over the island several time to seek the prince but it failed to find him.

NAMKROEU was both very frightened of the punishment and felt pity

for the prince, she thus stopped her breath and eventually died while

the prince arms hugged around her neck.

tnrutlnnftfrunll1QnUJI ihuno1rutn9Jthtmw1mutJw Both the Prince and NAMKOEU were born as male and female

horseshoe crabs. That is why the male horseshoe crab is smaller in size than the female horseshoe one and lives on the back of female horseshoe crab, depending on the female horseshoe crab for his survival up to now. • ~rru@]
