Project Limulus

Project Limulus is a regional program organized by Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Connecticut. The objective of this program is to better understand the distribution, movement, longevity, and mortality of horseshoe crabs in Long Island Sound. Horseshoe crabs are a near-threatened species and overharvesting has led to a dramatic decline in Long Island Sound.
