Comment: Real? These weird creatures were found in an abandoned
foundation pit in the Russian city of Chelyabinsk. I even don’t have an idea on which animal it can remind me. It really looks weird and scary, i wouldn’t like to hold this one in my hands. ![]() ![]() ![]()

I don't know much about animals, but it looks like a horseshoe crab.
![]() The tail is different, though. |

![]() Looks like a triops. I didn't know they could be that big. Last edited by Da Kine; 23 December 2010 at 08:15 PM. Reason: Added picture |

To be fair, we don't know how big the one in the OP's picture is, though. There's no reference point.

I concur that it looks like a Triops, but there aren't any species native to Russia, so the description from the OP is almost certainly wrong.

They are found in Russia. And I don't see what size reference there is in the pictures that would indicate this one is large. This page describes the photos and debunks the "strange creature" story:
