: "I am a crabber on the Chesapeake Bay. We found a horseshoe crab on the side of one of my crab pots in October on Chesapeake Bay below Baltimore with a fishing line tangled around its legs. Chris cut the fishing line off the crab. He removed a couple of barnacles and algae and safely released it back into the Chesapeake Bay. As fishermen, we always try to help animals that need it."
