Did you know? Shrimps are related to lobsters, crabs and crayfish. Unlike its relatives, shrimps are swimmers than crawlers. They swim backwards using their fanlike tails to escape from danger and they use the swimmerets on their abdomens to swim forward. Swimmerets are the abdominal limbs of shrimps that carry the eggs in females.
