DID YOU KNOW?
Shrimp are crustaceans and are closely related to barnacles and crabs, but did you know they are distantly related to centipedes, spiders, and insects? They all belong to the Phylum Arthropoda, which means they have jointed appendages. Learn more about shrimp research shared in our Hook, Line & Science blog.
