Today's Installment of WHAT IS IT?
Below are pictures of a nasty-looking creature that was discovered in a trench in the Russian city of Chelyabinsk. The photos are from Pravda, but no other information was given. I thought at first it could be a young horseshoe crab, but turns out it isn't. Any suggestions?

Wow, you take the prize once more! Are you a professional detective/zoologist? My only question . . . how did a horseshoe shrimp get into a trench in Russia?
Cool! (And kinda gross)
Now those are just Wierd! Even by MY standards!

*gag* that is very...fasinating
That does look horseshoe crabish.
I will not forgive you for posting that next to the ice cream.
*swallows vile stomach acid*
I'm here late...but, that does not look like a Triop or Horseshoe Shrimp because the design is different and you can't really see the eyeballs. Secondly, why would the people be so amazed if this was a thing is known by so many?
It DOES look like one of those triops or sea monkeys. I used to have triops...when some of them died I had to fish them out quick...they're cannibals. Then they sat in a box in the freezer waiting to be buried... then my mother put her foot down. It was a very...weird funeral.

That would actually make a great story, Hazel. You should write it down!
Ugh. It looks like that thing they put in Chekhov's ear in that one "Star Trek" movie. Bleurgh.
Chris: You're so right! I was freaked out by that thing for years.
Chris, its so cool that a guy (maybe) is on this blog we need more guys!!
