Presenting the horseshoe crab—unchanged for 450 million years and still rocking that royal blue blood! While human monarchs come and go, this living fossil has been quietly ruling the evolutionary game since before trees existed. Its copper-based blood (not iron like us peasants) turns blue when exposed to oxygen and is worth $15,000 per quart in medical testing. Talk about liquid nobility! The British throne wishes it had this kind of staying power. Forget diamonds—blue blood is clearly the superior flex in both monarchy AND biology.
