Do horseshoe crabs make a noise?
Horseshoe crabs do not produce sounds in the same way that many animals do, as they lack vocal cords. However, they can create noise through the movement of their bodies, particularly during mating rituals, when males grasp females. This can result in sounds like scraping or clicking as they interact with each other and their environment. Overall, while they may generate some noise, it is not vocal in nature.
